Spectacular moon this evening. It was full night before last, but tonight it maintains 97% illumination. A mere 272 thousand miles away, it just seemed to glow orange (not pink). And if you look closely, you can see stars in the background not visible to the naked eye. Not just white stars, but red, blue, green and yellow stars. What was most interesting to me was you can't see stars around the perimeter of the moon -- as if there was an atmosphere blocking clear view. Nikon Z6, 600mm Tamron, f/6.3, 1/160 sec, ISO 200
