A day or two late for the Harvest Moon, but I think it looked better like this, hidden partly behind a bank of cloud.
Not quite the Harvest Moon

Waiting for the Northern Lights
Apparently the Northern Lights were likely to be visible even this far south tonight…. but by the time it got dark enough, the Northern Lights had toned down, and were only visible from Scotland š

Full Moon and a City Glow
By the Glow of the Moon
The moon seemed extra bright tonight, with a hazy orangey glow around it – perfect for a couple of photos!
I had to nudge the exposure settings down a lot to get the detail of the moon’s surface to show up.
Sunset Moon
Taken just a few moments after yesterday’s photo, IĀ love theĀ colour of the sky in this photo – the reflected sunset gives it a purpley hue, which seemed to tone down the brightness of the moon.
Contrasting moon
I always find it strange to see the moon in the sky before it’s dark, especially when it coincides with a reflected sunset! The sky was a really deep pinky red, and the moon seemed a complete contrast, glowing so brightly.
Supermoon…. or a Mini Cheddar cheese?
Another photo from yesterday’s ‘supermoon’ today – taken just a few moments after the first one, but the colours look totally different.
Another month, another supermoon
The final “supermoon” of 2016, and a good job I took the photo when I did, as 10 minutes later the clouds haveĀ obscured the moon completely.
Super Moon glow
Another photo from this week’sĀ ‘supermoon’ today. The cloud obscured most of the moon, which resulted in a particularly picturesque view! The sky looks an orangey brown behind the clouds, and if you look closely you can just make out the edge of the moon in the centre of the photo.
Supermoon (a day early)
The forecast for tomorrow evening is thick cloud, so I took the opportunity to take a photo of the ‘Supermoon’ a day early! I love the way the stripes of clouds formed perfectly horizontally across the moon.
Did you know that on Monday (November 14th), the moon will be the closest since 1948? It won’t be this close again until 2034…. and I bet it’ll be forecast to be cloudy then as well!
