The full moon hangs like a silver lantern, quietly lighting the night below.

I’ve Seen the Moon Every Month
the past 67+ Years and it
Still Fascinates Me

 

Why is our moon called just “Moon”? Our astronomers are busy naming the moons from other planets but don’t even give ours a proper name.

This is the day after a full moon (at 98%) around 10:30pm on a clear evening in June. Full moon the night before, but was overcast.

Hauled out one of my 4x5 view camera for this one. Not sure what black and white film stock I was shooting with at the time.
