Sunday February 25, 2024 night skies were clear making capturing the moonrise over the DC Monuments possible. Here are two blended image from a Manassas Warrenton Camera Club Meetup I organized taken from the Carilion Bell Tower area next to the Iwo Jima Memorial in Arlington Virginia. The second image was taken as the moon was just over the tip of the Washington Monument and because the moon rose around 7:10 the skies were quite dark. The first blended composite image shows 3 stages of the moon rise on this night. These images were created by combining layers of the moon captured with a shorter exposure and faster shutter speed with a longer exposure and a smaller F stop to give lights a starburst effect, create light trails of cars and lighter monuments. I also decided to clone out some work fences and a trailer in front of the Lincoln Memorial.
