          Nice photo WOO :blue thumb: The moon has been incredible these last couple of nights , with it being clear and very cold -2°c . It stated on TV that the late Autumn full moon before Christmas is known as the "Moon before Yule" or the "Frost moon" . Early Autumn is the harvest moon , and mid autumn is my favourite "The Hunters Moon " !

          The date and approximate time of a specific full moon (assuming a circular orbit) can be calculated from the following equation:[3]

          Very easy to work out if you take your socks off to help with the add ups :biggrin:
