Jim shared a sequence of photos of the moonrise Oct 6th over the San Diego skyline from Shelter Island. It’s difficult to get any further west because North Island hangers obstruct the skyline. PhotoPills suggested the moon would rise over One America Plaza if we setup at the fishing pier. But it came up a few buildings north and did not align with One America Plaza tip till it was higher in the sky. We’ll keep trying – the weather also was hazy so the first image of the moonrise were subtle. Plus, we hoped to get the building lights but they did not come on till after 7pm. When the moon was pretty high in the sky.
For scary, Jim shared photos from the Oct 12th Oaxaca Festival in Oceanside. It was the first time being held locally. The last festival dance was the Oaxaca festival “Dance of the Devils” where particpants wear elaborate costumes with horned masks. Perfect for the scary theme.
Finding a new Fall-themed image was hard but Jim shared a bee-on-marigold shot taken during a recent pumpkin patch visit. His other image of fall colors were from a drive to the Grand Canyon North Rim a few years ago.
