West Thumb Moonrise, Yellowstone NP, WY

Photographer's Notes:

On t

is night

the

full moon rose over

the recently snow-peaked Absaroka Mountain

Range. The night of the full moon holds deep meaning for many - it goes by many a

different name too! To the Colonial Americans it was the

Harvest Moon

; for the

Cherokee it was called the

Nut Moon

; for the Celts it was known as the

Singing

Moon

; for the Dakota Souix it was the

Moon When The Calves Grow Hair

. All of

these have specific meanings for those that named them...

For me, every full moon is a delight! Especially when you see it rise in a beautiful

natural setting (like the bubbling geyser basin known as West Thumb in Yellowstone).
