Sturgeon Moon over Monksville reservoir

Joe is my friend of forty years. He sent me this photo today. He called it, “Sturgeon moon 2022 over Monksville reservoir”.

The Farmer’s Almanac names the full moon each month. August is the Sturgeon moon. We kayak on the reservoir every full moon during the summer. There’s no ambient light so every star in the sky pops.

Thank you Joe, for sharing such a moment with me.
