The full moon of June is traditionally called the "Strawberry Moon". Official moonrise on Tuesday was 8:32 pm MDT, but the moon travels such a low arc through the sky at this time of year that it was over two hours later before it finally showed itself from behind the southern flank of Snowshoe Mountain. The late-evening clouds were thick, so prospects looked sketchy, but it all worked out. Moon photos were taken with a 60mm f/6 refractor and E-M5iii camera.
