I have learned more about the full moon in the last two months than ever before in my life. Native American
tribes of what are now the northern and eastern parts of the US gave names to each full moon for the
predominant characteristics of that phase of their season. Thus this full moon was called the "strawberry
moon", because those tribes knew that most of the strawberries were to be picked during this moon.
I have also learned that moons can be technically difficult to photograph, that careful planning is necessary,
and that mosquitoes may determine the length of the shoot.
