🌕 When the Moon Meets New York There are moments in photography that happen only when timing, distance, and patience come together. I planned this moonrise carefully, waiting for the Moon to rise behind Manhattan and align with the Empire State Building. The goal was to capture the Moon low on the horizon, where it would appear enormous against the skyline. Then the clouds arrived. Instead of ruining the moment, they became part of the photograph, cutting across the glowing Moon and creating layers between the sky and the city. For a few minutes, the Moon appeared to float directly above the Empire State Building while New York continued moving below. The city never stopped. The Moon never waited. I simply had to be in the right place at the right time. 🌕🗽 📍 New York City 📸 Kirit Prajapati #NYC #NewYorkCity #NYCPhotograp
