Moonscapes Moonrises Moonsets and Moons
Fullmoon over Half Dome. Yosemite Winter 2007. This was my 'consolation' shot while trying to capture my "Nature's Firefalls" rare image of Horsetail falls at sunset. I wish that I could say that I had fully researched this shot and was ready for it. Instead, I was coming back from another failed attempt to capture my Nature's Firefalls image. When I came around the corner, the moon was sitting there!! I stopped my car, setup my tripod in the middle of the road (please don't tell the park rangers I did that as it isn't a good idea!) I captured 4 shots before the moon and Half Dome were totally obscured by the clouds! I was pretty lucky to capture this - but that is part of photography.
