I'm in Northern California for a couple weeks and the other evening I looked out the window and the moon was rising up along the left flank of Mount Shasta. I grabbed my camera gear and got some shots.

In this shot the almost full moon is very near the top of the mountain. It was evening but still essentially daylight so I was able to expose for the mountain and moon in one shot. I wasn’t so wild about the color shot so I converted to black and white and selected the moon and adjusted contrast and sharpness.
This is the night after the first shot, I was out on the hillside with 400mm and 1.4 extender all ready for the moon but it didn’t come up until after dark. I was able to get a shot as it rose behind the highest peak of Mount Shasta but the mountain was dark so all I could do was get a silhouette.
