Re: [APML] Nightscapes & Moonrise at Race Point

Beautiful shots, Chris! I think you have a lock on the lighthouse market. I
haven't tried it around our west coast lighthouses, but moonrise behind one
would probably end up with me getting very wet ;-). Maybe I'll try a moonset
one of these days.
Do you use TheSky or some other program plus a compass to plan your location
and timing?
