Moonlight Sail



I was on a rare planned photography shoot, and after I drove the streets around the Thea Foss Waterway, I headed down to Ruston Way. After sunset, I saw this boat round Point Defiance, so began to try to position myself to get a shot of it as it returned to the marina. I could not get a position to photograph it in Commencement Bay, so I raced ahead of it to the park at the end the Waterway. I took several shots and then I saw Mt Rainier and the moon. I took a few more as the boat passed between me and the mountain. The low light made it difficult and this is one of the few that was focused and reasonably sharp. Most people thought the moon was a light on the far shore, but I enjoyed watching it rise over the mountain.
