Photograph taken at an altitude of Fifty four metres on Monday 25th January 2021 at 17:35pm on a bitterly cold but beautiful winter evening in January  off Chessington Avenue in Bexleyheath, Kent.

The moon is the only natural satellite of Earth. It's surface gravity is 0.1654g, around one sixth of Earths, and it's average orbital distance from us is around 384,402km (238,856 miles), or 1.28 light-seconds. The moon influences our tides and stops us in our tracks on a clear night. She is beautiful for sure.
