Tonight it’s meant to be very windy here, which should mean breaks in the clouds, and Full Moon photo opportunities!

LOL... Worm Moon... Now they’re coming up with names which are just gross!

It was gorgeous this morning here, if Aussie's was anything like mine, it was a stunner!

Captured just a few minutes ago, as I left Asda:

A lucky break in the clouds. Woohoo!

We're you guys a day early? scratch

Now more about the name..

Native Americans gave the moon this name because it coincides with the thawing of the ground and the reappearance of earthworms.
It’s appearance also coincides with the March equinox, which officially signals the beginning of autumn in the southern hemisphere.

Nah, going by the times you posted this Moon was at its fullest in the small hours of this morning, so last night was the best time to catch it Smile

Looks like Honolulu would be the best place to capture the exact moment when it’s at it fullest.
I always like it when these events fall on a day with the same number as the year number, gives it a sense of synchronicity!

The forecast isn’t great for here for tomorrow night(Total cloud cover is expected), but I’ll try and capture the Moon if I can!

by TrueCrazyLion Mon May 20, 2019 6:40 pm

Unfortunately there's been no opportunity to capture this one, it's basically been wall-to-wall cloud cover ever since I made my last post above. Easily the most cloud there's been at Full Moon for... Well, years really. You can usually rely on there being at least one clear night!

This month's Full Moons, captured earlier on tonight outside Asda:

Fortunately managed to find a break in the clouds, as it had been raining heavily earlier on tonight!

A cool month for the Full Moon this month, with the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11. Hope the next few nights will be clear!

by TrueCrazyLion Tue Jul 16, 2019 4:54 pm

I’ve just seen this from my living room, just now:

It looks like... A partially eclipsed rising Full Moon!!

That’s so cool that I seem to have caught it!

by TrueCrazyLion Sat Sep 14, 2019 11:49 am

So it was clear the other night, after being overcast during the nights when the Moon was full last month, and I got a chance to capture the Full Moon:
