Harvest Moon and Sunrise Photo ?

[rambrosio]

<p>I want to photograph the Harvest Moon as it appears from the horizon ( Mon Sept 15th).</p><p>I live in Bermuda and Harvest Moon time is 6:16 am. Our sunrise is at 7:05. From a photography perspective, would I be able to capture the Moon rising and will it have a beautifully rich orange colour? It would make a very interesting shot to have the moon hanging over the horizon as the sun rises. </p><p>Thanks in advance.</p><p>Rob</p>

I'm not sure it will look the same as it sets. I'm even less sure of the effects from Bermuda. My best advice it to take the picture, and see how it comes out!!
