I woke up early to catch a sunrise and was surprised to catch the moon up BEFORE the sun came up. I couldn't go back to bed because the light kept changing as the sun rose and I had to keep going outside in my nighty to shoot some more. Yesterday when I was shooting there were gardeners in our yard, hope they didn't see ME!
Does this moon rising before the sun a common thing? Because I haven't noticed it before. Not a morning person.
Trinda, this is an absolutely amazing picture....a definite FAV!! Thanks for the Follow....brought me right to your album, and to this photo, so I am following right back! :-)) BTW, not a morning person here, either, so I admire your perseverance in getting this shot!
Stunning! I was raised near Rainier, and have seen thousands of shots of "my" mountain. This is among the very best. You benefited from the dark mountain, which made it possible to have a perfectly lit moon and near silhouette of the peak. Normally, one or the other would not be exposed correctly. Outstanding!
Gorgeous! You are so blessed to have this view right outside your door!!! Thank you for capturing it, and sharing with us. Definitely a Fav for me, and I look forward to following your project.
Fab! Fav! Moon lit by the rising sun seems natural enough to me - not that I ever get to see it in this part of the world, cloaked in gloom as it is! Think of the geometry of the situation - relative positions of earth, moon and sun, then you should get it.
