June Full Moon: Golden State Warriors

» Posted by on Jun 3, 2015 in Featured, San Francisco

Last night was the full moon for the month of June. I was uncertain about the weather, summer being here, our friend Karl the fog is often present. Exceptionally yesterday was a clear day and stayed clear in the evening. I went again at the same location as last month, looking for a better image. In photography, dedication and stubbornness are essential.

The major difference between this month and last, is the lighting of the Coit Tower. The city is celebrating its basketball team, the Golden State Warriors, playing in the NBA Finals for the first time in over 40 years.

I had everything lined up but the fog came in to play the trouble-maker. It was late enough so I could get a couple of nice images.
