Moon rise over Joshua Tree National Park


Four minutes of a glorious full Moon rising over Joshua Tree National Park — reduced to a 6-second Vine.

I do like a little well-done time lapse. In this one, the action of the clouds playing peek-a-boo with the Moon is a lot of fun. It’s just the sort of astronomical action I love to watch in the National Parks.

I wonder where Lian Law took that time-lapse of the Moon.  Anyone know?
