On Halloween night, I headed out to view King Kong moving through the wonders of Tom Saltsman’s animatronics and then continued to Crocker Park where I hoped to capture the rare blue moon. I had an idea in mind to stack focus and combine a foreground shot of a pumpkin on the rocks with that of the full moon rising near Marblehead Light.

While the moonrise was a wonder to behold, the stacking didn’t quite work out as planned. So here is a sneak peak of tomorrow’s moonrise only with the pumpkin stealing focus from the brilliant blue moon.
