Moon over Florida
Uploaded: March 21, 2011
Moon outside the condo where I live. I added the Ibis from a picture I had taken at Seminole park. The full moon was a super "perigee moon". The biggest in almost 20 years. This celestial event is far rarer than the famed blue moon, which happens once about every two-and-a-half years.
"The last full moon so big and close to Earth occurred in March of 1993," You'll have to wait until 2029 to see it again.
