Photo by #CanonExplorerOfLight @erinbabnik: “The super moon did not appear at all for me when it was rising last night, as the forecast for my region did not hold. A storm front over California covered all of the areas that were within driving distance of me, causing thick clouds, high winds or both to snuff out my options. I did get into position on a desert playa just in case the clouds might magically part, but all I got for my efforts was a lot of wind in my face.
Therefore, I decided to head out again this morning to see if I could catch a glimpse of the moon before it set. The morning sky was even more socked in! Dense, low clouds blanketed the area, but I could see a tiny sliver of an opening to the north that might give me a short window of opportunity before the moon would drop behind the nearby mountains. I drove as far I could get toward that opening and found the only 10-foot-square section of land where I could see over some tall trees. The moon was visible for only a few minutes once it descended into the narrow gap and I was fortunate that a snow-dusted part of the ridge provided me with a nice alignment. It wasn’t the plan that I had for the super moon, but at least it gave me a little wink on its way down!”
