A New Pink moon.

A New Pink moon.
Actually the second day of this new moon but it allowed me to go into the garden and practice my night photography. The Pink moon and the Super-moons occur when the moon is within 90% of perigee -- which is its closest approach to Earth in orbit.

Thanks Keith. In truth, my long 55-300 lens used here is not the quality that I would like it to be but... it does try!

Keep well and Happy Easter. Herb

You are right Steve, it was still quite low on the horizon. As said to Keith above, a better lens would have been even nicer for this but...

Keep well and Happy Easter. Herb

A well captured moon, Herb. We've had cloud and rain for days, so not even moonlight let alone a chance for a shot like this. Best wishes for the weekend, stay safe.

Thanks George. That is our usual weather too. After five months of continuous bad weather, it has now warmed up and gone much clearer -of course we cannot go far t enjoy this. At least I can take shots like this from my window and garden.

Keep well and Happy Easter. Herb

Hi Herb

A very nice picture, of the 'Pink Supermoon'.

I went out to see it too, from the local cemetery, suitably equipped with wooden stake just in case!! Photo will follow in due course!

Best Wishes, a happy Easter, and stay safe!!
