Tisha’s Trinkets

Last night, the Full Moon appeared to rest perfectly above the Statue of Liberty’s torch as it rose over New York Harbor. 🌕🗽

The Moon isn’t actually larger than usual — this effect is created by shooting from miles away with a powerful telephoto lens, making distant objects appear dramatically closer together.

For a few brief moments, one of America’s most iconic landmarks seemed to hold the Moon itself.

📍New York City, USA

A giant Moon.
A symbol of freedom.
A perfect alignment that lasted only seconds.
