  • A full moon at Banzai is generally a remarkable gift for one to give to one's self.  Here you see Olga and BeverLi both looking at the full moon on March 2, 2010.  They were kind enough to "freeze" for this 2-second exposure.  It was windy, as you can see if you look at Olga's pant leg (the blowing fabric gives the soft focus).  Oh:  In addition to having the privilege of sharing the night with two delightful people, the pizza was a nice addition, too.
  • Looking to the east.  A 2-minute exposure while the moon was still fairly low in the sky.
  • Later in the evening, a 3-minute exposure looking west.  You can see some of the monuments to your upper left.
  • Another later-evening, 3-minute shot.  This time we are looking east again.  The wind was quite brisk, so I was pleasantly surprised at how crisp the twigs focused.
  • A 3-minute exposure of the little rock island.  <br />

Well, I hope you enjoyed the magical night-scape of Saipan's Banzai Cliff!

    The following comment was by Bev. You are certainly welcome to order, Bev. I hoe you enjoy. It will be a bit dark in a print, but that may be what you are looking for.
