Full Moon Rising

Photographer LJ Urie loves capturing images of the full moon ascending over his hometown of Annapolis. “The size of the moon when it initially rises above the Chesapeake Bay makes it a special moment to witness,” he says. Urie is especially proud of one aerial shot (above) created on a late-April evening. “The moon, its reflection on the bay, Main Street and Church Circle all aligned, drawing the viewer’s eye right to the center of the photo,” he explains. “I hope it depicts the beauty, serenity and quaint historical vibrancy Annapolis has to offer.” Photo: LJ Urie
