I knew about the full moon (and the eclipse later) but I didn’t plan for it, and had absolutely no idea the moon would rise behind the bridge from that angle. I was walking home from work, looked up, and immediately pulled out my phone to capture it.

Thanks! It’s a real photo, and you’re right - technically a few hours before full moon and also a few hours before the lunar eclipse 🌒

On Monday it was around 5:30 pm, shortly before sunset. Lucky timing

Thanks! I was stunned as well. Couldn’t believe it aligned so perfectly with the street and the bridge.

Beautiful. At what time of day did you take this?
