Super Moon over the Salt Marsh

November 13, 2016

 

A rare "Super Beaver" moon! I love the name. It is a "super" moon because the full moon is making one of its closest passes to Earth that its ever made. It is a "Beaver" moon, because the full moon in November is nicknamed the "Beaver" moon.

 

This photo is taken from the sand flats North-West of Paine's Creek Beach. Because of the astronomically low tide, we were able to easily cross the shallowest part of Paine's Creek as it drained and dissipated into the sand. It was about 2 inches (5 cm) deep where we crossed... very COLD, but almost no water. Also, since the tide had recently gone out and it WAS a bit cold, I had pristine sand-squiggles and puddles of the reflected pink sky, all without the abomination of footprints!
