Eve of Inauguration Moon

Did anyone see the moon last night next to the Capitol Building?  Have a look at it... 1.18.2025 at 10:17pm - photo by Gordon K. Lau whose Instagram page is here - text below photo is from Lau's IG page


Last night’s 74.7% Waning Gibbous Moon rising over the @uscapitol from 3.3 miles away. As always, this was a single exposure capture taken at 600mm, f6.3, ISO 1250 and 1/3s shutter speed. What makes this shot unique from most other moon alignments of the US Capitol is the Presidential Inauguration flags draping the facade of the building. That of course only comes around every four years.

    1. Yes, it may have something to do with Mars somewhere near it, but whatever the reason we have 3 "blood" moons coming up, including on Purim.
      I've never seen one that was such a deep red as this one over the Capitol.
      Signs in the Heavens.
      The moon represents the Jewish people.
