Blue Moon Rising
Chicago, 2024
Limited Edition Fine Art Print of 6 — On Monday, August 19th, an exceptionally large “Blue Moon” rose over Chicago at dusk. This was going to be the perfect conditions to capture the moon while there was still some light on the city. The lights of the buildings were slowly coming on, and the moon began to peak out above the skyscrapers. I was thrilled to have the former Hancock building in the photo to make this image iconicly Chicago. So much careful planning came together to pull this shot off. I could not be more thrilled with how this came out. Copyright Derek Nielsen Photography.
