Moonrise Over ManhattanSkyline of Lower Manhattan featuring Freedom Tower at night. New York City, New York, USA.
Building on my previous post, the other reason I chose this day and position to photograph the skyline was that I knew the moon would be rising just behind lower Manhattan right around sunset. (I used an app called The Photographer’s Ephemeris.)
I can usually count on interesting light to happen just after sunset when the ambient light levels closely match those of the lights in the buildings. That did indeed happen, and the moon came up on cue!
