This is a typical sunset for Mono Lake this time of year, captured in late January 2009. I hope to get a shot like this tomorrow, except with a nearly-full moon rising in the composition!
I've written a some blog articles on how to anticipate full moon rise opportunities:

Album of my photos from a few years ago
I wanted to show you this with an album of photos from my blog over on Blogspot (www.activesole.blogspot.com), but I seem to be running into a G+ bug where older albums don't update their cover photo when you repost photos from them (one of the features I love most about G+ over other sites).
