Once in a Blue Moon

[jlgurr]

You won't see this in the Big City Lights...

On the 31st of July, this beautiful time-lapse rise of the Full Blue Moon was captured 2 ｽ miles away from Cape Byron Lighthouse, on Belongil Beach, Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia. The head land and lighthouse at Byron Bay is the most easterly point of the Australian Mainland and therefor is the first place in Australia to watch the full moon rise. This video is made up of 1038 frames and slowed down to as close to real time as possible. The photographer has been working on perfecting this type of time lapse for over a year now after seeing the work of his favorite photographer Mark Gee.

Don't forget to breathe watching this majestic time-lapse; everything about it is just perfect, and it's a photography clinic for anyone interested in taking time-lapse. See this stunning moonrise and appreciate just how beautiful God痴 work can be.

Gorgeous. For those of us blessed with living rural and away from light-pollution, the clear night sky is a joy to behold.

That was neat. I used to live in a dark area, but I live near Branson now, and well... there must be a few thousands signs and LED big screens on the "great white way" downtown to advertise the country music. Oh well.. It is never very dark here, and if there is low cloud cover, I am not sure you could not read outside at night.
