Harvest Moon by Mt Yasur


I wish I could get a picture of the "rabbit" in the moon, which some myths in Vanuatu call "dirty handprints on the moon." Even though I couldn't get the craters of a yellow harvest moon, this 30 sec. exposure shows the moonrise next to Mt. Yasur on the day of the year when the moon is the largest. Yanemilen's church light is on, so the church is visible in the foreground.
