Happy Lunar New Year, everyone!

To celebrate, I bring you the moon itself.

The whole thing, first:

Full moon

(Photo credit: hypergenesb, and I highly recommend you check out the Flickr page of the photo. He has the picture very well annotated.)

And closer up, it’s even more pockmarked.

Sometimes stuff gets in front of the moon, and somehow that only makes it prettier.

And sometimes, the “something” in front of the moon is the Earth itself, which is even cooler.

If moonlight is just sunlight repackaged, why isn’t it toxic to (non-sparkly) vampires? Just because it’s indirect?

I like it when the moon has a halo around it.

And finally, a tiny sliver of a crescent:

Want more cool pictures? It’s snowing here again, so I’ve got to link to my collection of snow pictures.
