Moondance Over Manhattan

This video was shot during the evening of Friday 3/18/2011. It was an unseasonably warm day! I had been sightseeing at Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty and then stayed to watch the moonrise over Manhattan. There were some other photographers at Liberty State Park who had informed me that there was going to be a full moon that night. This was the night before the Mega Moon of 3/19/2011. I had been thinking about leaving before the moonrise, but I am glad that I stayed! it was a beautiful evening and a great opportunity to get some nice shots of the full moon rising over Manhattan!
