The rest of my family is out looking at it through binoculars right now - apparently if you do that you can see the Appolo 11 landing site. I tried, but it was so bright it felt like the light was stabbing into my eyes, so I couldn't make out much past that. Nice to enjoy with just my eyes while I was taking my dog for his evening walk, though.

thanks! I was wondering about the pink. At rise it was a beautiful pale gold. Turned to silver when I looked away. Never saw pink.

My husband told me to go and look at the big moon and I thought it looked really white only to hear them calling it "pink" on the telly. Glad to find out why!

Unfortunately it was cloudy and raining last night where I am so I wasn’t able to see it.

It's not much different than a regular full moon in my opinion.

It was beautiful here,one of the lilacs was blooming so it smelled nice and the toads were trilling.
White clouds of dogwood blooms and a few early fireflies.
