APOD 1.5


My first guess was that this was a shot from a horror movie, complete with blood red sky and orange oversized moon. Fortunately this is not The Hills Have Eyes 3 but instead a real shot of the moon above a few cacti in the desert. The rising of a full moon can apparently be quite a sight, and its no different with this moon, the Saguaro Moon. Though the long focus lens of the camera has blown up its size, the colors of the moon and the sky are still pretty striking altogether. The light provided is amazing and is basically another sunrise.
