PHOTO OF THE DAY: Moon Over Pigeon Point Lighthouse
Elements aligning just so to catch the perfect shot.
by Phil McGrew
Our unusually warm winter weather afforded a shot that is usually not possible. The rare moon/lighthouse alignment, good weather, good timing, and a moonset just prior to sunrise all contributed to the success of this photo.
