Wolf Moon Over Abruzzo, Italy

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Image is a composition of 5 interval timer photos to show moon rising path) Wolf moon rising next to Corno Grande and Pizzo Cefalone peaks (Gran Sasso d'Italia National Park) is seen from Tornimparte (L'Aquila), Italy, on January 25th, 2024. Wolf Moon is the initial full moon of the new year and derives its name from native Americans and the fact that January was the month when the howling of wolves became more intense. Additionally, due to the cold temperatures, this was also the time when these animals tended to approach villages more closely, resulting in their howls being heard more frequently. Corno Grande (mt 2912) is the highest peak of Apennines mountains. (Photo by Lorenzo Di Cola/NurPhoto)
