Sunset Moon Rise at Mono Lake Last Night


Here’s the result of my quick trip to Mono Lake last night.  When I arrived there were 4-5 carloads of photographers capturing the sunset, but none of them were there for the moon rise.  Having planned the shot in advance using +The Photographer’s Ephemeris (TPE), I told them to stick around for another 10 minutes.

I captured about 400 images, enough for about 13 seconds of time-lapse video.  I’ll get that conversion started while I go check out this morning’s sunrise.

As I mentioned last night, here’s my blog post on planning to shoot sunset moon rise events using TPE:
