Harvest Moon Rising Sept. 29th

[Tony S]

The full moon was tonight, on the left side of the mountain as opposed to last night's right side rising, and later after sunset which made it a much tougher assignment to get it and the mountain tonight. The trick I found hardest was trying to expose for that danged bright moon, get the mountain, and maintain some of the alpen glow still remaining in the sky. It helped that the moon was coming up through a layer of clouds that filtered it some to cut down on it's brightness. I should have fired off a few bracketed shots to try to hdr it, but I suck at that.

Two of my feeble attempts...
