Moonrise over Joadja

Joadja, southwest of Sydney, is the site of an shale oil refining town that was abandoned in 1910 when the kerosine industry finally failed. I went there with some others to do some night photography of the ruined and overgrown buildings and refinery (to be posted later).

 

My favourite photograph from the excursion was not of the ghost town or ghost refinery, but that of the rising moon lighting up the valley.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks to you all for your comments :)

 

Ideally I would have liked to have had the moon less overexposed and more identifiable for what it really is but I just didn't have the exposure lattitude available to me, and I don't like HDR.

Beautiful photo! The whole scene is spectacular. On a second look, I noticed the reflection on the leaves where it looked like they were a light source themselves.

 

Thanks for sharing this.
