Here’s the result of my quick trip to Mono Lake last night. When I arrived there were 4-5 carloads of photographers capturing the sunset, but none of them were there for the moon rise. Having planned the shot in advance using +The Photographer’s Ephemeris (TPE), I told them to stick around for another 10 minutes.
I captured about 400 images, enough for about 13 seconds of time-lapse video. I’ll get that conversion started while I go check out this morning’s sunrise.
As I mentioned last night, here’s my blog post on planning to shoot sunset moon rise events using TPE:

Phil included a link to a time-lapse video of this event that I produced, and he provides a nice explanation of the "Belt of Venus" pink on blue color in the sky.
Gorgeous, amazing
