A VERY quick and dirty edit on last night’s strawberry moon. Given that
the next time summer solstice and the “strawberry” moon meet will be in 2062, I
figured I’d get out and snap a few. Didn’t see any good local line ups based on
what Stellarium was showing so I ended up going to a lookout in Palos Verdes
where the full moon would rise behind the cliffs in the distance. Clouds/haze
pretty much blocked the moon up until this point where it peaked out and then
was visible thereafter. I wanted to capture it a bit lower so it wasn’t as
bright but I still managed to pull out the foreground shadows in this exposure.
Plus the twilight blues got even richer as compared to when it first rose. I’ll
take a new moon over a full moon any day, but it was still fun to get out and
snap some. Oh and happy summer everyone! Nikon D750, Nikkor 70-200 + 1.4x TC
(effective focal length at 250mm), f/4, 1/20 sec, ISO-3200
