Details:
Later this week we have a somewhat rare opportunity to observe a major lunar standstill and which occurs every 18 years. Attached is my effort from 2006 and where the rising Moon was captured at maximum positive and negative declination (+28deg, -28deg) over twelve days. The time series in the middle involves the rising Sun (near equinox) as reference and which highlights the dramatic swing involving the rising Moon.
