August moon

It has been a very long time since I last posted a picture of the moon but tonight, there was a small window of very clear weather despite the rain of the past few days. With the super full moon appearing bright in the sky at ten o'clock, it warranted me running indoors for my camera. However, full as it may seem, the moon was only at 99.7 percent illumination. The exact 100 percent full moon would still be about 4½ hours away at 2.25am local time Tuesday morning in Penang but with the clouds and rain rolling in later in the night, the moon was no longer visible. So consider myself lucky!
