I wanted to take advantage of the last super moon of 2016 so I went to the top of the Pennybacker Bridge Overlook to photograph the full moon.

The moon was full the other evening and I have been thinking about capturing a series of moons using my intervalometer. This photo is the outcome.

Moab Night Sky

I mentioned in an earlier blog post that I made a trip to Moab, Utah. We decided after dinner one evening to go in the patio area of our condominium to try to shoot the Moab night sky.

One of the highlights of the trip was the early morning Milky Way shots. The first time was near the Castolon area which is on the way to Santa Helena Canyon. It was my first Milky Way shooting experience so I made a lot of mistakes early on.
