Moon Rise over the White Mountains. A little bit of orange/red can still be seen from the eclipse the night before. Maybe. Maybe it’s just the atmosphere. I used a bit of fill flash to lighten up the surroundings.
A few minutes later, a little zoomed out.
It took me a few minutes to get the [...]
I’ve been playing around with long exposure times on my camera. I took these two last night.
