moonrise at sounion - june 26, 2010

the full moon has come to mean that, work permitting, i'll be out chasing a moon shot. yesterday, i met up with mr.G, anthony ayiomamitis and chris kotsiopoulos at [surprise, surprise] sounion. anthony's calculations were exact!

my image with a canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM lens and a canon EF 2x II extender:

i don't have video capabilities on my 40D, but i did make a video sequence of a series of stills, in an attempt to convey the feeling at the first moments of moonrise:

music: porcelain, a band i saw, live, in beijing. view video on flickr.
