Album Moon Shots

Moonrise 3/21/20 Lancaster County, Nebraska

I drove to one of the trailheads near Virgin to see the moon rise tonight. I'm still too exhausted and sick from my leg infection to hike, so the drive-by had to do the job.
Unfortunately, I forgot my tripod, so these are just some handheld shots.

The Moon rising last night (4/7/20). This is a composite stack of 2 pictures for focus stack and exposure. I tried to get this picture with the Moon behind the church tower cross but couldn't get everything set up and working in time.


The Moon setting here in Nebraska this morning (4/8/20).

Halloween Blue Moon. . . even if it is Orangey-Yellow.

a few shots from yesterday's moonrise

Zion Moonrise
I had this shot in mind for a long time. I knew I had to shoot it a day before full moon so I would have the nice sunset colors before the moon was coming up. I hiked out to my spot about an hour before moonrise, sat down, and waited. And then I finally got my shot with the weather cooperating and the wind dying down just enough so I could take my picture. Mission accomplished!!
I will definitely repeat the shot next month again as I hope there will not be so much dust in the air. We had a lot of storms the last few days and it definitely affected the air quality a lot.

Something a little different perhaps. Moonset looking over the Livingstone Range. Single 32 min exposure on film!

I went out to get a photo of this old abandoned Catholic church out in a field in Colfax County, Nebraska before it was to be torn down. Didn't make it before the cross was removed. Parked out in the field about a hundred yards away to illuminate with the headlights.

Longest and Last Full Moon of the year.

Yesterday evening - the cloud is about to eat the moon

Last week’s full moon - rising over slickrock paradise between Escalante and Boulder, viewed from Head of the Rocks overlook along Hwy 12

First view - 6:46pm


12 minutes later


And the next night, the effect of the moon (still hidden behind the tall cliffs behind me) lighting up the rock face in front of my campsite.
