Lunar Halo Competition
As the name suggests, take an image of a Lunar Halo.
Rules:
Whilst the points awarding is somewhat ambiguous I’ll be looking for the following…
- Technically a good image (in focus)
- Well composed
- Other points of interest (foreground or background)
- A good story – if you have a story of how you took the image it can’t hurt!
Entry criteria:
- You can only enter if you are a paid up member (any tier of membership)
- Entries must be to webmaster@crayfordmanorastro.com – feel free to post them on what’s app as well!
