A crisp, crystal clear night provided the backdrop as Mother Nature brought the moon just a little closer to New Rochelle (and the rest of the world) last night as if to confirm “winter is over”. Amen to that! With Sunday being the first day of spring, it was a fitting fanfare to usher in the new season.
(I was lucky enough to get this shot as the moon rose up over Echo Bay)
If you took photos last night and would like to share them please send them.
Saturday nights “super moon” resulted as the moon reached its perigee and came closer to the earth than it has in the last 20 years or so. Closest it’s been, in fact, since January 20, 1992. Anybody remember where you were on that date? In case you missed this years celestial “happening” all is not lost. The moon will be even closer on November 14, 2016 for all you stargazers. Until then, get out and enjoy spring and all it has to offer!
Amazing photo John
John- I love your picture! We were out of town for the weekend and where we were wasn’t great for a clear photo. So glad to see the one you have up!Great job.
