In 2019, Southern Brazil had two main astronomical events: a partial solar eclipse (at sunset) and a partial lunar eclipse (at moonrise). In the first one, shooting was impossible, even driving as far as 300km from home once completely overcast. In the second, on the other hand, the forecast was great, and my plan was to shoot the eclipsed full moon rising over the Atlantic Ocean.
After researching Google Maps, I chose this island (Curtis Island - located 11km from the beach) on the Paraná State coast to compose with the rising moon. At the location, I found the right place and waited until the right time. The light and the view were amazing. Once the ocean was too crispy, I decided to include a breaking wave in the foreground.
