A hyperlapse of what was supposed to be a full blue moonrise just behind the Point Lookout Lighthouse last night as the sun set. Unfortunately, I miscalculated my angle and the moon rose a little more than a degree to the left than I was expecting. Also, because I was going for the maximum "wow" effect, I was shooting extremely tight (560mm) so there was absolutely no room for error. The only evidence of the moon in the video was the moon's shimmer on the water towards the end of the video. The moored sailboat along with its attached transport boat made for a neat effect though.
Mistakes made and lessons learned. My next attempt will be better.
Give me some ideas for the next one!
