This one is not exactly a Full Moon, but it is close, on the other side of true Full. And it is likely the last Moon I will photograph for 2024 unless some ideal conditions open up.
Exposure is always hard with a near-Full Moon, and they are never as interesting as lesser discs which show off the Lunar crater formations. No guarantees but I will try to capture some of these Waning phases in early January.
