Moonrise Over Agate Bay Two Harbors

If you never have had a chance to sit along the shores of Lake Superior and watch the moonrise, mark your calendar and schedule it in. Last week, everything came together to make a great moonrise over Agate Bay in Two Harbors. The lake was calm and the sky had just enough clouds to make the moon interesting.

Moonrise Over the Edna G

There are many places along Lake Superior to watch the moonrise but in July Agate Bay is hard to beat. In this photo it appears that the moon is lighting up the edge of the Edna G. Actually it is the revolving light of the Two Harbors lighthouse that is reflecting off the yellow paint. This is a 25 second exposure so that the beam of light from the lighthouse is hitting the Edna G several times while exposing the picture.
