Full Moon Over Amman, Jordan: Pentax K-5, Pentax smc DA 70mm f/2.4 Limited
Please click on the images to see larger versions. This is the third and last of the blogs about my recent middle east trip. In Amman, Cindy and I spent most of our time exploring the market place, trying new food and photographing the locals. We also spent an evening at the Citadel, home to the Temple of Hercules. We were fortunate enough to be there for the full moon rising above the city just as the sun went down (opening image). What a magnificent sight that was! I hope you enjoy these photographs.

Very nice, very nice indeed. I recently found out that I will be living in Amman for three years, starting next year.These images only serve to make my wait a long one.
I’m curious, did you use model releases for any of the people pics?
