Faraway Friday-Moonbeams at Yosemite

Hundreds of photographers swarm Yosemite on a certain day each fall when the temperature and the moon align just right to create a moonbeam in the falls at night. I was able to capture just one (see the bottom). This was taken with long exposure at 1am!

Moon over Lake Chelan

Lake Chelan is less than 5 hours away, and feels like a whole different world. The climate is high dessert, but with irrigation is next to the apple producing capital of the world!

There was a beautiful sunset with moon-unfortunately due to the fires still burning in the hills.
