Barb I’m so jealous I do not know how to photograph the moon like that. That is my goal
To research and find out how to do it. I’m not sure if it’s possible to do it on an iPhone 8. But your picture is beautiful.

@olivetreeann Thank you, Ann! Why is it called a Mayflower moon? Never heard that phrase before now...

@kaylynn2150 Thank you, Kaylynn! Sorry! I don't know anything at all about taking photos with an I-phone. When I got my Nikon 5600 DSLR last fall I got so frustrated because I couldn't seem to get an even half-way good moon shot. I used to have a Nikon CoolPix point-and-shoot that got good moon captures; so, I thought surely I should be able to get even better ones with this expensive camera. lol I finally Googled "How do I take a photo of the moon with my DSLR?" That gave me a starting point with the settings to use in Manual mode. At that time, I really hadn't learned much about using Manual mode. Anyway, I began trying again with some measure of success, and now I am asking myself, "How many photos of the moon does one person need?" LOL My best advice is to research the subject like I did and then keep trying, using what you learn. Happy weekend to you!

@bjywamer It's the first full moon in May and the flowers are blooming now. There is a list somewhere (probably out on the internet) with the name of each month's full moon. The two I remember are Hunter's Moon and the Beaver Moon but I can't remmeber which month they go with! Oh, and I think there is a Strawberry Moon too.
