Full moon fever

[buzzsaw]

Me and a few photog friends have had the Friday night full moon marked for months, hoping for a good sky up at Split Rock Lighthouse. It was the largest moon we will see of the year by another 1/3 in size I was told. Add to that the fact that the sun was still up in the west for a short while as the moon was coming up allowed for a lit up lighthouse vs a typical silhouette shot. Here are a few from Friday night and a saturday morning boatwreck.

Framing up the Moon between the norweigan riviera (Ellingson Island) and the Lighthouse.

As it rose still with some sunlight at our backs.

A little later when we were losing light.

We had lost the light at our backs, so a few of us rushed up to the lighthouse to see if we could get a nice gradient in the sky while getting a silhouette of the lighthouse.

The next morning we discovered a boat that had seen better days.

Let the light be your guide.

Pretty stuff as expected, Mike. I like No. 1 and No. 3 best. Wish I could have gotten there with you, but the cabin closing would not wait.

Oh my. Some great shots. Hard to pick a favorite, but like the third one and the old boat. Wow!

#1, #2, #4 just some really nice work done here Mr. Lentz. Of course I would expect nothing less

Great shots Buzz. I like number 2 the best but the boat is a close 2nd. They are hard to pick from though.
