Ōmutu moon and Kōpū (venus) rising from the Te Moana Nui a Kiwa (pacific ocean).

If you know me you know I love this moon phase the most. Being there in the flesh is just amazing.

In this image you can also see the distinct orange colour that we have seen here in Aotearoa since the Tongan volcano eruption earlier in the year.

And finally Kōpū aka Venus above the moon is a special bonus.
