We waited a long time for the moon to rise and started to wonder if it ever would. The full moon rise was very dramatic.It is difficult to capture the moon at the right exposure as it is so bright. I liked this photo because of the profile of the Superstition Mountains in the East Valley and the glow basking over the city.
The moon at the horizon is filtered through the dry desert air and dust in the desert, and it creates a glow similar to a sunset. Similar light dynamics occur at sunset.
This is a milder version of what occurs at sunset. This photo exaggerates the light effect as we overexposed the photo a little so we could show the outlines of the mountains and the city even while dark.
You can see the top of the Scottsdale Waterfront Project in the foreground. The 101 Freeway runs through the middle of the photo.
Tomorrow is a good photo with details of the full moon and all of its glory shining over Scottsdale.

Love the shot and the wait was worth it. Its seems that Scotsdale has a great skyline to take a great photo.
It was worth the wait, neat shot.

Beautifully captured.
Excellent job! Perfect with the moon rising above the mountains. The moon is a difficult subject to shoot. It is surprisingly bright, much brighter than we realize.
Beautiful Julie! I can't wait for tomorrow.
