Biggest and Brightest Full Moon of 2010, originally uploaded by mark.mortensen.

The moon this evening was the biggest and brightest full moon of the year. Denver had clear skies and the smog was low as well. Grabbed this image with my 70-200mm @200mm on a mono-pod. Other fun facts; Being the first full moon of the year it is also known as the wolf moon. Tonight’s full Moon was about 14% wider and 30% brighter than lesser full Moons.

Today offered me another opportunity to photograph some DaVita teammates.  This time it was members of our compliance group and they requested business portraits for an organization chart.  It was a bit cold to take them outside so these images were taken in the lobby of the building.  I recruited one of the teammates to hold my reflector and taught her a bit about lighting.
