 This image was taken during the Wolf Moon last Friday night at 11:35 PM even though I have realized the time on my camera states that it is 11:35 AM. I am correcting that issue now. The Wolf Moon is the first full moon of the year and is the brightest and the largest since it is closest to the Earth during this time of year. I strapped on snow shoes and headed out to the forest to see what I could capture. First time doing this sort of thing, so this image was the result of the evening. I had a blast snow shoeing in the snow at night by the light of this very bright moon. The weather was fantastic.

This is a 21 second exposure.
