Details:
The full moon of June is named "strawberry moon", not because of it's actual color, but because it is the time of the ripening of strawberries in the Northern hemisphere. When rising low in the horizon though, the full moon can show exceptional colors like red, pink or brown. Coincidentally, yesterday the full moon had a deep strawberry color! As a foreground i chose the ancient Greek temple of Poseidon, a popular site for observing the full moon during the summer. Capture was done from a large distance, so that the moon would appear large in comparison to the temple.
