Returning from photographing at the Lighthouse I turned the bend and there was tonight’s spectacular full Harvest Moon rising over Niles Pond. I wished there had been time to set up my tripod!Ā

While out for an early evening walk with our pooch tonight I was unexpectedly delighted to catch the full Wolf Moon rising over the back shore. I wonderĀ whose houseĀ that is on NilesĀ and if they knew the moon was rising so picture perfect above their home.full-moon-wolf-moon-brace-cove-gloucester-seals-cape-ann-copyright-kim-smithBrace CoveĀ Harbor Seals lolling about under the moonlight on this unseasonably warm evening

Blue Moon

This first shot is actually from Thursday evening, several hours before the precise full moon:

On Friday night, the “blue moon” put on a real show, playing hide-and-seek through the clouds:

Special thanks and prayers for all the men and women who have served their country to help protect and defend our freedom!

Besides the fireworks, what a beautiful moon we had last night…

Moonrise behind Our Lady of Good Voyage

Posted on by Matthew Green

On my way to an appointment yesterday evening, I saw this amazing view. I turned my car around on Prospect St. and parked in order to snap this shot – and met another photographer who had done exactly the same thing at the same spot (we ended up parked one behind the other, and shooting from the same spot on the sidewalk…).

Super Moon Rising Tonight at 7:14 PM

Posted on by paultmorrison

At my regular posting time of 2PM it was overcast and snowing so I was not going to make this post. But look outside, crystal blue sky. So set the alarm to 7PM so you can race out to Good Harbor Beach or Rockport Harbor or any place you can view the skyline due east because the Super Moon is rising at 7:14 PM.

What is a Super Moon? A moon which becomes full close to perigee which means it is closest to the earth. This has not happened since March of 1983. The moon appears about 14% bigger at perigee. The moon apeears bigger because it is a full moon, (well duh), and the moon appears bigger when it is near the horizon.

So unless you want to get up at 6:16 AM to watch this Super Moon set, watch it rise. Some people think that a super moon causes more lunacy (luna, aka moon) but I think that is lunacy. But you might see some lunacy on Good Harbor Beach at 7:14 PM.
