"I believe our future depends on how well we know this Cosmos in which we float like a mote of dust in the morning sky." —Carl Sagan

Orion, the Hunter

Micro Full Pink Moon in conjunction with the bright star Spica in Virgo.

This image is an HDR (High Dynamic Range) version, created using a technique that combines multiple exposures to capture the Moon’s natural appearance more accurately. (Gear in tags.)

(Despite its name, the Pink Moon doesn’t actually appear pink. The name comes from the blooming of pink phlox flowers around this time of year. My camera is Astro modified, gives that faint pink glow.)
