Well, not really bad. Pretty spectacular, in fact. Driving to dinner one night, I accidently ended up in the "scenic overlook" ramp of I-70. Driving out of it, my friend started yelling "Stop the car! Stop the car!" This moon, rising over the mountains across the lake, was the cause of his excitement. Still in the overlook area, I screeched to a halt and we grabbed our cameras and fired off some shots. I posted one of the other shots at the Village earlier. All shots were either handheld or resting on the car for a tripod, 1/20 shutter speed (shutter priority), f/4.6, ISO 100.
What a moment to catch. A spectacular image.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! What I wouldn't give to see a moonrise like that let alone capture it....

ReplyDeleteI can't believe you were able to capture that! You're channelling Ansel Adams. I can't even begin to try to come up with words for it.
