Once in a Blue Moon..

After a number of attempts, the haze on the horizon won the day. Getting a picture picture "just as" the full moon was rising just didn't happen.

The only decent shot was I got was about 20 minuets after the supposed moon rise when the moon finally poked thru the haze.

Next full moon is the last weekend in September, maybe with a bit less humidity we'll have a better chance!

While trying to get a final shot of the blue moon setting, which didn't work, I did manage a nice sunrise from Baby Beach in Lake Shore Park, this morning (9-1)
