11-04-02 Makapu'u Moonrise & Sunrise.

We planned on going to Makapu'u Beach yesterday morning to photograph the moonrise at 5:40am followed by the sunrise at 6:23am. 

However the morning did not start off well.  Originally I was supposed to be at Minh's house by 5am, so I set my alarm for 4:30...finally woke at 5:10 when Minh called to ask where I was at.   Scrambled out of the house and met Minh at 5:30.

We picked up William at 5:40 (moonrise was supposed to be at 5:40am).  Finally got to the beach around 6:15, but with the sun supposed to rise soon we hurriedly set up to get a few shots.

No one was able to get the moonrise as the sun coming up right behind the moon just was too bright.  Never even saw the moon.  The sunrise was a different matter entirely...
