"Moonrise at the Temple Mound Barn" This was last night's moonrise, at a Ramsey County ND barn on an unusual little hill that looks like almost like an indian mound, which is why I dubbed it "Temple Mound Barn".

Another image, shot at different time and daylight, is available on my gallery site - just search "temple mound". Image captured 10/8/22 with Pentax K1 and DA*200mm lens.
