Full Moon rising over the skyline of downtown Buffalo, emerging low right in between buildings.

Full Moon in Buffalo

Skyline of downtown Buffalo to the East, skies clear, the light of the day slowly fading away after sunset, the city lights slowly turning on, the balance is just about perfect, and then the awaited moment comes. 8:07 PM, the moonrise time, the moon at full. What a magic of Mother Nature!

The moon rose exactly behind and then above the city hall the night before. On this night, it chose the gap between couple buildings and was visible from the very start of its path up the sky. At this altitude, the size looks completely amazing with the high-rise buildings to compare to.
