Wolf Moon over Griffith
This was a planned alignment image of the full moon setting over /behind the fabled Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, CA. The image was taken from a hillside behind the Trader Joe's in Silverlake, 2738 Hyperion Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027--the manager of the store was not happy that I scampered up the "grassy knoll" for the shot...I took a series of images in an impromptu time lapse of the entire moon setting behind the Observatory which can be seen on my IG @photographybywam
