PIX4578903: Sunrise - 22 June 2005. - Full moon rising - June 22, 2005 - Moonrise one day after the summer solstice. The Moon rises very south and remains low in the sky (like the Sun in winter) thus taking longer than usual to rise. It is dark red when it appears discreetly above the sea. At first very blurred (due to the very strong atmospheric turbulence near the horizon), flattened (due to the atmospheric refraction), dark and red (due to the thicker atmosphere near the horizon), it gradually illuminates and yellows, while it regains its very round shape. That day, it will take several hours for her to turn white again. Each image of this montage was taken five minutes after the previous one. June 22, 2005. Full moon is rising on June 22, one day after the summer solstice, so the Moon is rising far to the South. Moreover, it stays low above the horizon (like the Sun in winter) and takes more time than usually to rise. It is dark - red when it appears above the sea, at just one degree of elevation. Firstly very fuzzy (because of the atmospheric turbulence very strong near the horizon), flatten (because of the atmospheric refraction), dark and red (because of the thicker atmosphere near the horizon), it brightens slowly, get more yellow, as it takes its round shape. That day, many hours were necessary for the Moon to became white. Each picture from this composite had been taken 5 minutes after the previous one. June 22, 2005 / Bridgeman Images
