Moon River

As a tribute to singer Andy Williams and his iconic "Moon River" song, this image shows a "river" of cirrus clouds flowing over a 3/4 moon, creating a halo around it above our house's back roof in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Williams, a native of Wall Lake, Iowa, passed away today at the age of 84. I actually had the pleasure of meeting Williams in 2008. This image, shot around 8:15 PM, Wednesday, September 26, 2012, is a three-second exposure at f/6.3, 2500 ISO, 18mm focal length and looks east. Here's to you, Andy!
