Full Snow Moon



The emerging buds on the tree help to identify this as the full "Quickening" moon. Wiccans associate the February moon with Imbolc and the wakening of the earth. The Native Americans called it the "Snow Moon" since the heaviest snows nsusually came in February. I try to get a photo of every full moon. The moon don't change but the seasons, cloud cover, moonrise times, background, etc make a different photo each time. Here is a later shot with different settings of the Snow moon.
