Moonrise, Islandia


Whenever I hear the word "Moonrise" I immediately think of the Ansel Adams photograph "Moonrise, Hernandez" which I first saw at the George Eastman House in Rochester, NY in 1960. I have seen many moonrises and always equate them with being in nature, and the beauty of the universe. So when I came out of a Starbucks this evening, and saw this moonrise under some shopping center parking lot lights, with electric wires in the background, it just seemed so completely incongruous, I had to photograph it. This is a photo that will not be hanging on my wall at home!
