A full moon was rising over a misty sky as the sunlight lit up the misty cirrus clouds that gave a vivid orange glow to contrast with the blue night and white reflections. The moon controls are ocean tides and is our only satellite the firth largest one in our solar system. It takes 29 days to orbit the earth. It is about 92 million miles away. It is about 1/4 the size of earth and is more egg shaped then round. There is no atmosphere and no wind and temperatures can vary from from 253° F (123° C) to -387° F (-233° C). Humans landed on the moon in 1969 and brought back moon rocks. The moon inspires lovers, poets, scientists, artists and many songs.

Moon taken 2008 October 15
This photo was supposed to be of a full moon; but clouds and smoke from local wild fires caused it to be a couple days late. Just managed to catch a short window when it was fairly clear (still… the brown color is probably due to smoke from the fires).
Highest Position - Explore #494

My first attempt to catch the moon, last Saturday, May 5th.
Pure improvisation, the result doesn't matter a lot! It will always be beautiful!

Full moon today.

TODAY - Monday, May 1, 2017
The Moon today is in a Waxing Crescent Phase. A Waxing Crescent is the first Phase after the New Moon and is a great time to see the features of the moon's surface. During this phase the Moon can be seen in the wester sky after the sun dips below the horizon at sunset. The moon is close to the sun in the sky and mostly dark except for the right edge of the moon which becomes brighter as the days get closer to the next phase which is a First Quarter with a 50% illumination.
