Supermoon Over Cape Palliser

They call it the Supermoon, although it's not much bigger than a regular full moon, but I won't argue with that. It was a challenge to find a location to shoot this evening's moonrise. Cloud threatened the party in Wellington New Zealand, so I drove for a few hours to a location I have spent many nights photographing the stars.

It was tricky to get a perfect lineup tonight and it didn't work out exactly as planned, but I'm still happy with the result! And check out the people next to the lighthouse as a good scale reference!

This is a singe exposure shot taken 3.7km away from the lighthouse.
