Moonrise from Wawona Tunnel, Yosemite National Park


mark_hyams

This was on the day when the moon was closer to the earth than it had been in the past 300 years or something like that. I photographed this at the Wawona Tunnel, and there must have been 30-40 other photographers waiting there for the moon to rise, but they all had left before I got this shot. No filters whatsoever were used. I think it is a 15-30 second exposure.

Mark, superb colours - great the way your eye goes wizzing down the canyon to the moon and your historical note about it's closeness to earth gives it added dimension for me!

Great shot, I agree you should crop but i think you should only crop the bottom, leave the top as it is.
