This moon of ours is getting more and more adjectives, so why not call it as Pearl Jam do on their last album.
I’ve seen many better photos of it than these but these are mine, taken over ten minutes on Wednesday evening.
I loved seeing it appear from behind the earth, even though that meant that I shan’t be eating for 24 hours, since every full and new moon I’m doing the self-imposed feel-good fast. You know, so that on all the other days the food tastes better.
Plus every time it’s up, I need to keep my two wolves happy. So much work. (Not.)
Be well and enjoy my extensive blogging history below the gallery. Hard to believe that over the years I posted all these on this same one day.
ADD-IT: Meanwhile it has come to my attention (thanks, Lenča!) that the Wolf Moon only happens in January. In May it’s Flower Moon. And here I thought Pearl Jam were being creative. See all adjectives – and there is one for each month and more – here.

Those are wonderful shots. Too cloudy here for me to get a meaningful look so I’m grateful for yours ! Super blood wolf moon it is !

Thank you, Bonnie. I’ve been informed since that Wolf Moon only happens in January. In May it’s Flower Moon. I’m glad it was visible here so that I can share it.

Great photos. I didn’t see it, either it was too shy to appear for me or it was too cloudy, but yours make up for that.

Thank you, Mari! 🙂 I’m glad that I went out and searched for it. At first I though it was a no show but then I realised it’s only starting.

Thank you, Bushboy. Apparently I called it by the wrong name. Wolf Moon is in January, in May it’s Flower Moon.

My God, Manja, your shots are stunning. STUNNING. The moonscapes – wow. And yes it’s a flower moon, the super blood wolf moon was the one in January 2019. I know cause I took plenty of shots of it! I haven’t been able to this month. The duck and the cemetery are just *kisses fingers* Obvs, great doors too! You make me want to go out with my camera light now! And I would if I didn’t have so much to do (she says, whilst dawdling on WordPress!) 😀

I love moon photos of all kinds. I’ve been working with some of my old ones. I haven’t yet figured out how to get good ones from this location. I’ll try again next month. (K)

Only now I realise that these adjectives are actually names of the months. In Slovenian language we have the same word for the month and the moon: mesec. Strange world. I wish you much joy with your moon.

Ahh, thank you, Amanda! I like them together like this, but as I was taking the photos, I had a feeling that I was doing something wrong. That I should change the setting or something. But with my point-and-shoot there is not much I could do.

The photographers dilemma! Grab the shot or fiddle around with settings! It is tricky but these days I too opt for the P&S. Time poor, you see.

Thank you, Sherry! I was not sure they would be any good as I was taking them. But it was a lovely scene.
