Went out to get some moonshine -- er -- I mean -- catch a near-full moon-rise this evening at Puntan Laggua (Parrotfish Point).

Even though it's on the east side of Saipan, Puntan Laggua can be a great place as the sun goes down because of the dramatic lighting.  When the sun shines over the island at such an angle, the shadows, highlights, and bright yellows just pop!<br />

  • Full moon is not until 2 more nights.  Sometimes the nights ahead of an approaching full moon can be nice, because the moon is high enough to photograph while there is still enough light around that you don't have to do anything too heroic to capture the detail of the moon and the dramatic lighting of the foreground.
  • Later in the evening, the absence of direct sun allows for the nice long exposure shots I have so much fun with.
