Tucson Skyline at Sunset and Moon Down
Tucson is located in the desert Southwest where the air is crisp and clean most of the year. When fall arrives the humidity from Monsoon Season drops and the heat cools to a moderate temperature.
The sunsets are amazing here many evenings. But I’ll be honest in summer when it is over 100 degrees outside at sunset, I’m not outside to watch it. I sometimes see the red shadows cast on the Catalina Mountains to the East and know it was a “Good One”.
Now that fall has arrived, it is wonderful to be able to sit outside on a patio and watch the sun go down over the mountains.
The other night we got a special treat. The sun had set about 15 minutes before the moon. While the sky was still blaze orange the fingernail moon slipped beneath the horizon. I was fortunate to have camera and tripod with me at the time.
Till the sun set I hadn’t even noticed the moon in the sky. The sunlight was so bright the slip of the moon wasn’t obvious. Then there it was following the sun over the mountains.
Hope you enjoy it. Have a great weekend (what’s left of it).
