Cloudy night on 14 Sept 2008
Well, it’s really a very belated Happy belated Mid-Autumn Festival（中秋节）! Another unofficial name is Mooncake Festival. Chinese celebrates this festival by eating mooncake and enjoy watching the moon. Some even lift off the “Kong Ming” Lantern with their wishes on the lantern to the sky.
It’s on 15 August every lunar year. (14 September in 2008). On this day, the moon is usually the biggest througout the year. The moon is called as Harvest Moon in western countries.
However, the largest moon (Harvest Moon) didn’t fall on 14 September but instead the next day. So, we don’t have the largest moon during this year Mooncake Festival due to the moon was still between the perigee and apogee.
At the end, please, enjoy my artwork of moon. The silhoutte was a tree not less than 50m from me.
