Full Moon Between the Poolbeg Chimneys

The December wind along Sandymount Strand was biting and the weather forecast in Dublin was not favourable, the clouds were thick as I tried to track the full moon rising behind the Poolbeg Chimneys.

A shaft of light appeared while some small breaks in the cloud moved in from the west, I got into position and set my camera as the sky cracked behind the chimneys for a few moments, the whispy cloud defused the full moon perfectly for a few seconds and then it was gone, but the moment is captured forever in this picture.
