Harvest Moon

On Thursday evening my wife and I went for a drive to get a few things and as we were out we spotted the full moon in the sky and I will share a few shots I got of it that evening, it had a nice orange glow from some angles and I think this full moon is called a Harvest Full Moon

While we were out I only had my 24-240 lens, well that was the longest lens i had with me so when I got back home i got out my 600MM lens for a few of these shots.

It gets its name Harvest Moon for being the closest full moon to the autumn equinox, which was traditionally around harvest time in the northern hemisphere

It is open of two full Moons in October this year the next one being on Halloween, which is kind of cool I think.

This next shot was when I was out with the shorter lens of the moon in the sky over some lights in the Marina in Fairhaven

does the full moon affect you?

I know it does me, I had a teacher at school who said I related to the original term on Lunatic in that people were moonstruck or affected by the cycle of the moon, both I and my wife Lulu feel the effects of the moon and have to give each other a little space as we get shall I say a little cranky LOL

I found this interesting piece on this site

There were clouds moving buy that night so I was for the most part waiting for clear shots of the moon but got this one with a little bit of cloud shadow on the moon
