Last evening while I was at the computer, this moon was shining in, through the sheer curtains. I set up my tripod and took this shot, right through the glass. The pink haze around the moon might have been because a snow storm was just hours away. We are in the middle of that right now, and it is supposed to be an all day thing, so doubt if I see the moon tonight. If you look closely at the night shot, you can see a star or planet just below the moon to the right. I looked here, to see if I could find out what it was. Maybe Saturn? I definitely need to learn more about the night sky. Anyway, I guess these are my moon shots for March, unless I get a better one in the next two days. The light shot was day before yesterday, in the afternoon. I used the 70mm for both photos.

This moon is called the windy moon by the Cherokees.
