Strawberry Moon photo from San Diego goes viral, Reddit users say ‘copyright this immediately’
A rare celestial phenomenon made its presence felt in the skies over the United States in the early hours of June 11. The June full moon, also known as the ‘ Strawberry Moon’ made an appearance in the night skies.
Unlike its name, the moon does not appear to be pinkish. Rather, an event known as a ‘major lunar standstill’ gives it a warm, golden hue.
A photo of the moon rising over San Diego has grabbed attention on Reddit. Titled, “Full Strawberry Moon rising behind the Mount Helix Cross tonight,” the image was posted by a handle called Evgeny Yorobe Photography.
