Pikes Peak and the Supermoon

12 years ago

I was getting coffee from Starbucks this morning when I looked at Pikes Peak in the early morning sunlight. There was the waning moon setting over the snow-clad mountain. (Yesterday was a day of drizzle and damp; obviously this settled as snow at higher elevations.) I laid down some rubber to return home and get the camera to take a shot.

Pikes Peak and Supermoon

As you can see I just made it back in time…

By the way, if you want to see what Pikes Peak looked like on Saturday, here’s a shot I took then:

Yep, there was quite a bit of snow yesterday.
