This turned out quite different than I had expected. I, and many others, were positioned on the high knoll above the entrance to the Gig Harbor Bay. Expecting it to come up over the Cascade Mountains. But we did not discover the sliver of the moon until the sky darkened and it was already a ways up over the horizon.
Here first two shots taken Saturday evening to test the location where it was to rise over the Cascades. I had hoped to be able to get Mt.Rainier in with the moon, but by the time the moon rose high enough, the mountain would be dark on Sunday.
