This week’s creative photography ideas comes from Creative Sparks photographer Nancy Alderman. Those of you who know me or are familiar with my work know my enthusiasm for images that are cosmic, celestial, mysterious and even spiritual. This image strikes me because of it’s ethereal beauty. Even though it’s a straight photograph of the moon it is full of emotion. Nancy’s perspective which integrates the moon within the soft green leaves in the foreground gives the image a wonderful sense of depth and mystery. The luminous color of the sky is amazing and contributes to the image’s soothing and magical qualities.
