YARDLEY, PA —With Saturday being the borough's Harvest Day festival, Photographer Josh Friedman wanted to capture the spirit of the celebration.

Friedman captured this snapshot as Thursday morning's harvest moon set over Lake Afton and St. Andrew's Church.

When Friedman first arrived, the moon was a bit high in the sky.

"It took a bit of patience for it to gradually descend, as well as luck, as I did not want it to be obscured by the clouds," he said, adding that the trees and tall grass have started to show signs of autumn.

He snapped this HDR (high dynamic range) photograph from three exposures that he merged.
