so...would that be TONIGHT? Or last night in Texas? :) We are CST -6:00. Probably tonight, huh?? I'd love to finally get a moon shot.

@amyhughes Technically, full moon was at about 6 am this morning in Texas, but don't worry, by tonight the moon will be roughly 99.9% full. Astronomically speaking, full moon occurs at a very precise time, but for us humans down here on Earth the moon appears visibly full for a good 1-2 night window. Even tomorrow night the moon will be 99.6% full here in the states, so you have a few opportunities for a good full moon shot.

Taken last night during a brief break in the clouds. Not sure I will even get to see it tonight due to more rain.

Probably going to rain tonight here as well. I'm not so good at shooting the moon anyway,

Full Flower Moon - Flowers spring forth in abundance this month. Some Algonquin tribes knew this full Moon as the Corn Planting Moon or the Milk Moon.

We've had clouds for about 4 days straight here in Southeast Michigan, so I probably won't be seeing the moon, but thanks for sharing everyone!

Not from last night it was, at last, raining last night. However I have a full moon and loved the quote with this.

It was insane here last night! Absolutely massive and low, but of course, I didn't have my camera on hand.
