Solstice and the Full Moon

[hatcheckgirl]

It's passed, I know, but I was wondering if anyone has nice pics of this amazing line up of phenomena - the summer/winter solstice and a full moon has not been seen since 1948.

We have some pretty tall pines on that side of the house and we couldn't see the moon until almost midnight.  I didn't take any pictures.  I will next time...

 

I think one of my girls did but it looks like it was taken from a vehicle and is a little blurry. It was on her Facebook but she didnt say it was hers...

I didn't realise the significance of it all...

 

But the lower part of the moon was hanging down beneath a cloud as I drove along the motorway that day and I stopped and got a pic of it.

 

Unfortunately, at this time I can't access my photos but I'll try to remember to post the pic some time.
