To help with the post-Solvang let down, I thought I'd try to get a photo with the moon in the background because there will be a "super moon" on Sat. This means the moon is very close to the earth and will appear huge! Moonrise is 5:15p per Accuweather.com so I'm planning a little run up into the local mountains around 4 to scout a location.
Hope some of you might consider taking a nice pic too.

You would not believe this .but i took a very poor picture of the moon this morning on my way to work. (saturday morning) where i live there is no light pollution so it looked awesome.i cant post the picture as the quality is very bad i was doing 60mi in the dark trying to take a shot.but it was a beautiful sight.

That is almost tempting to try and shoot. I have the perfect place. I've done some long exposure photography with my M3 at night.
Here are a couple others I shot that night.
Yes there is a light about 200 yards behind the car off to the left. The rest is all moonlight. It might be fun to do that with the roadster.

Too much haze for me to get a good shot of the moonrise in Malibu. It looked great later on in the evening though. Had a great drive thru the mountains anyway!
