While visiting my siblings in the East Bay, I have come across this section of the road numerous times and every time I used to wonder its photographic potential. One day, as I was returning during a sunset, I saw a burn happen above it and I was so bummed to have missed it that the next day, I made sure to return at sunset through the same section. There were some clouds in the sky, but not expected to burn. Nevertheless I took shots for about an hour as it got dark and returned to my car. While putting the bag in the car, I noticed the color of the clouds changing. I recalled that it was around the time when the full moon was going to rise. I placed my tripod to take some shots to share this moon burn with friends but it seemed like the color was spreading to other parts of the sky. I ran to my original spot with my equipment and shot for another 10-15 minutes before the color neutralized again. I had just witnessed my first proper moon burn!
