HARVEST MOON

Harvest Moon
Photo by John Harrison
The full Harvest Moon often appears to have an orange or reddish glow when it rises above the horizon. This is due to a phenomenon called "atmospheric refraction," which occurs when the Moon's light passes through the Earth's atmosphere.
As the Moon rises above the horizon, its light must pass through more of the Earth's atmosphere than when it is directly overhead. The Earth's atmosphere acts like a prism, bending the light and causing it to scatter in different directions. This scattering effect causes the shorter, bluer wavelengths of light to be dispersed, while the longer, redder wavelengths are able to penetrate through the atmosphere and reach our eyes.
This causes the Moon to appear larger and more orange or reddish in color when it is closer to the horizon. The same phenomenon can also occur with the Sun, which is why it often appears to be more orange or red during sunrise or sunset.
It's a breathtaking sight that I feel fortunate to have captured in this photograph and I am now offering this as a limited edition Gallery Acrylic Facemount. See the blog for an exciting offer,

59" x 48" Gallery Acrylic Facemount
Acrylic facemounts are very popular mediums for photographers, art galleries, and fine art applications. Since an acrylic facemount has greater longevity, durability, and quality of materials, it is also ideal for creating wall art for the home or corporate art.
SPECS
Your image is printed on archival photographic paper using pigment-based inks with Epson professional printers. Utilizing all-new high-performance printhead technology, the print colors and quality are fine art and industry-best. We add a subtle glow to your print, with a metallic print upgrade - a perfect effect for this image.
On our Gallery Acrylic Facemount, there is no added space between the acrylic and the print. This enhances the image and its colors and reflects them brilliantly in your home or gallery. This vibrant option's unique style has easily become a favorite among professional artists and galleries.
The materials alone produce superior quality and color accuracy; the resolution, depth, and vibrancy of colors on photo paper are unmatched. The photo print is then facemounted to a quality acrylic using an opti-clear, pH-neutral adhesive with UV inhibitors.

Harvest Moon
The Harvest Moon is a beautiful celestial event that occurs every year, and last year, it was especially breathtaking over the Lighthouse at Navy Pier in Chicago. The Harvest Moon is the full moon that occurs closest to the Autumnal Equinox, and last year it appeared on September 20th, 2022.
