Picture of the Week – Lunitari

Lunitari

This was taken before yesterday’s massive smoke event. The last time I got a moon like this, I was in Mexico, looking over the Gulf. I’m thinking that has quite a bit to say about how much particulate matter there is/was in the air. I tried again last night, but there wasn’t much to be seen. I hope that by the time the moon is full, we won’t have to deal with the smoke, but it would be nice to catch a red rising harvest moon.
