    Who needs Hubble? What a fantastic shot!

    I’m drawn to the spot on the bottom that makes it look like a space fruit.

    What an awesome picture! I, too, think it looks like a big orange in the sky! Great detail. Thanks for sharing! I miss my night sky of Floyd! Too many lights in Chattanooga.

    Doug, what a wonderful photo. Thank you for sharing it!

    I just checked the naval observatory calendar — I remembered a glorious full moon on my 4th or 5th birthday — and it was true. 11 July 1968 had a full moon and I remember watching the moon rise over the mountains and fields — and it looked large, much like this photo does.

    Thank you for triggering a wonderful memory, too!
