May's Full Flower Moon

On Friday, May 5th the skies were bright with May's full moon, which also happened to be the final full moon of spring (summertime is almost here)!  The full moon that occurs in May is also the Flower Moon, the Farmer's Almanac says that the full flower moon has that nickname because it is the moon that happens when we start to see flowers bloom.

The full Moon May 2023 marks the peak of spring in many parts of North America that acts as a transition into summer’s sunny days and warm nights. The May full Moon is often called the “Flower Moon” with reverence to abundant flowers in bloom, a prelude to Mother Nature’s coming attractions.

One Indiana photographer captured some stunning photos of the moon over the past few months, but he got a really cool one of May's Flower Moon, check this stunning shot out!

It's incredible how Toby can capture these photos and you feel like you can see every crater on the moon's surface from here on Earth.  To check out more of his work, you can check out the Cheeseman Photography page on Facebook, and a big thank you to Toby for allowing me to share these stunning lunar views over Indiana!
