"Harvest Moon"
Does one's imagination or scientific optical formulation portray the moon as larger than life? The Harvest Moon as you probably know is the full moon at or around the time of the autumnal equinox. It was given that title because it seems so bright that crops could be harvested well into the night. However all full moons seem larger at the horizon because the atmosphere is actually thicker for our viewing, at that location so the atmosphere behaves sort of like a magnifying glass.
