Orange Moon



Although impossible to capture on film, the full moon tonight is a beautiful shade of vibrant orange. I've never seen anything quite like it.

I'm glad that Dovey was here to see it. It's his last night in England, and I'm already missing him.

    It's really beautiful. I'm sorry that Dovey has to leave tomorrow; good-byes are always hard.

    Wow! That's beautiful. Is it because of polution in the atmosphere, a regular thing that happens at certain times of the year, or what?

    I wondered the same thing, Jo. This seems like a pretty good explanation:
