Gila Moonrise

[cnycharles]

after leaving the meteor crater, heading southeast across eastern arizona
and then heading down the mountains down into new mexico, we descended
a snowy pass where I saw the moon rising over the Gila National Wilderness Area.
it was very breezy and very cold, but I had to try and get a picture of the moon
rising from the top of the vehicle being shaken by the wind (and my shivering).
one picture is merged the other a single image; let me know which you like best!

#1 -- puts everything into context, and the moon is more important since it lives in a sea of darkness.

Peter Lik is an Aussie photographer/salesman/businessman, who is at the top of his game right now.


Looks like others have painted him in bad light.
