Full Moon August 2021

[orion25]

Nv-da U-da-ta-nv-a-gi-s-di U-li-s-dv (end of fruit moon), also known as Ga-lo-ne-e (Kituwa dialect) or Ga-lo-ni (Overhill dialect) is the Cherokee name for the full moon in August. Foods from the trees and bushes are gathered by the Aniyvwiya (principal people or Cherokee). Green corn celebrations continue during this time, thanking the Great Spirit for the gifts from E-lo-hi (Earth). I got this shot through my 127mm Mak with a Nikon D3200 during a break in the clouds!
