The biggest Lunar Rise of the Year

Kenny Gulley Jr. sent out emails telling us to look to the east as the sun set for the biggest moonrise of the year, so even though I was down and out with a cold, I did as I was told and this is the result. I caught this at dusk, just after it rose over the hillside.

The biggest Lunar Rise of the Year belongs to the following groups:

California Sound , Dawn and Dusk Light, Full Moon, Landscape Photography, Mood & Ambience - Strictly Photos, Mother Nature's Finest, Nature's Wonders, Night Photography, Shoot The Moon, The Addicted Photographer►2 Per Day◄ and The true beauty Available for sale as

    Hope you are feeling better!

  • MattGranz replied

    Yeah, I relaxed for a couple of days and stayed housebound (torture) and am feeling much better… in fact I’m hoping to get out tomorrow night and shoot some SF pics.

    Glad you captured this! Absolutely perfect! Fave! Worth every moment of pain afterwards?!

  • MattGranz replied

    hmmm… no pain, I got to it by car… was beside my car when I shot this. I guess I created a good illusion of being on a hillside trail. Meanwhile, your words here are so kind Vicki, and I just have to say thank you once again!

    Most impressive, and I love the simplicity of the 3 main elements. Bravo!

  • MattGranz replied

    Thanks! I would have liked a fourth element, but none were to be found…
