Supermoon Weekend

What better place to be on “Supermoon” weekend than in Yosemite Valley in anticipation of an epic moon-bow across Yosemite Falls. I joined fellow photographers Mark “Z” , Barry “Shrek”, Curt “Merely”, Ron “Elk” and Charlie “Superman” for a superb, round-the-clock photofest. With all the other like-minded photographers queueing up in the afternoon for front row tripod placement, it was almost a combat zone, but all the elbowing and the long wait were worthwhile. Actually, it was much like a regular tailgate with pizza and beer and lots of lawn-chair commentary. Other highlights included Bridal Veil Falls adorned with a vertical rainbow, Half Dome sporting a halo at sunset, blooming dogwoods and double toasted charcoal toast for breakfast.
