Walking back from a gig tonight, I noticed lots of people in Castle Street taking pictures. So I turned around to see what they were photographing.

And this is what I saw.

#Edinburgh #castle #moon #photography #clouds

A colour photograph of the moon coming out from behind thick cloud, behind Edinburgh Castle. 

The castle, in the centre of the picture, is illuminated and appears bathed in orange-red light. 

The moon is just above the castle, and is the brightest thing in the picture. The moon is a white disc, with no detail visible.

It is the clouds which make the picture. There are two dark circles of cloud, one on each side of the moon, which is lighting up their edges so they look like eyes or spectacles. 

The rest of the sky is very dark, and the cliffs of Castle Hill are also dark. 

In the bottom right corner the top of a tree can be seen, lit up by a street lamp. The leaves are bright green.
