Nikon Coolpix P900
The sun had just set in the west opposite the moon that had risen from the East. The skies were still bright and it was a cloudless sky this evening here during moonrise. I had to head down to the main road to take this picture against showing the foreground of the 'artificial' street lamps that had just turned on for the night. The moon was 99.3% full and the distance was closer than normal from Earth at 358,590 km from Earth. The moon did appear 'pink' when it rose. It was certainly breathtaking to see the moon in its fullest form.
