After this, I'll spend almost a week in Las Vegas. Besides playing a little poker, I hit the Valley of Fire park, Hoover Damn, and Death Valley.
This picture is the last of the series of photos I took at the Whitetank Mountain Regional Park near Phoenix. The third morning was very overcast in the eastern sky during the time in which the sun was supposed to be rising. Unlike the day before, the sun never made an appearance. Luckily, the moon was setting around the same time. I covered a lot of ground looking for a shot like this before it disappeared.
Be sure to visit Skywatch Fridays!

The composition is perfect - the moon in just the right place and the steep horizon works well. Very nice photo
What a fabulous moon shot, Russ! Stunning! Sounds like you're having a great time! I'm so glad!
Enjoy!

What a great road trip you are on Russ. I love Joshua Tree and need to see Death Valley. Maybe this winter on my way to San Diego. That's an awesome capture. You lined it up just right with the sugaro. Have fun at the wedding. And try to win BIG in Vegas.
Very very nice. You certainly did a good job.
