Super Worm Equinox Moon Rise

** 20% OFF ALL ACRYLIC PRINTS UNTIL MARCH 31ST **

A few weeks ago I hoped to get a shot of February’s Super Moon rising above a ruined Windmill here in the Algarve Hills, however, clouds put a stop to that. Therefore, I had already planned the shot for March’s Worm Moon.

The Full Moon in March is called a Worm Moon due to folklore that believed that the ground frost would melt and the Earthworms would start to emerge. Today is also the Spring Equinox and therefore the name Super Worm Equinox Moon has been given, quite a mouthful!

This afternoon I was in place almost an hour before the Moon would appear above the Windmill. A few small changes of position put me in line for the Moon to rise directly behind the Windmill.

If you are wondering how I managed to predict exactly where the moon would rise, I was using one of the many useful tools that the PhotoPills app provides.
