The Full Moon rising over the skyline of Calgary, on the evening of May 4, 2015. On this night the Moon rose about 15 minutes before sunset and so I was hoping to catch the buildings lighting up wth the last rays of the setting Sun as the Moon was rising behind them. However, horizon haze in the west and east obscured both the low Sun and low Moon. Here, the Moon appears as it rises out of the haze and still a pink tint. This is a frame from a 430-frame time-lapse sequence taken from the CFCN grounds on Broadcast Hill west of the city. This is with the Canon 60Da and 50mm lens. There was not an accessible location to the north that would have put the Moon rising over the city itself. That geometry won’t happen until September’s Full Moon which is also a total eclipse night in the evening after moonrise.
