Day 5 Photo a Day

This is just so beautiful. The full moon of Dec 11, 2008. Here is a note from space.com:

"BIGGEST FULL MOON OF THE YEAR: The Moon that's causing trouble for the Geminid meteor shower display happens to be biggest full Moon of 2008, as much as 14% wider and 30% brighter than lesser Moons we've seen earlier this year. An astronomer would say this is a "perigee Moon" because it occurs at perigee, the side of the Moon's elliptical orbit closest to Earth."

I was shopping in Fort Langley and happened to look out the shop window and saw this amazing sight. I just had to take some pictures and decided to share this one. Yes, I got some shopping done but the best part of the day - the Full Moon.....
