\"SuperSuper Moon – July 13, 2014 – Nikon D7100, f6.3, 1\/2500, ISO 500, Nikkor 200-400mm VR with 1.4x TC at 400mm, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

Yesterday morning I happened to be on Antelope Island State Park as July’s Super Moon set over Buffalo Point and I took a few images of it.<\/p>\n

Buffalo Point is on the north end of Antelope Island and near the top there is a short trail. You can also walk around the lower elevation of Buffalo Point and the shoreline of the Great Salt Lake from both the Bridger Bay and White Rock Bay campgrounds.<\/p>\n

I took this image from the Bridger Bay Campground.<\/p>\n

When next month’s Super Moon occurs perhaps I will be in a more scenic location but for now the golden light of sunrise on the rocks and sagebrush will have to do.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
