SALE photographer Darren Marsden captured this image of the Harvest Moon.
The Harvest Moon is the name given to the first full moon rising closest to the autumnal equinox - when the sun shines almost directly over the equator.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the Harvest moon rose late this year. Usually it occurs before the equinox in September, but this year it was on October 5.
The Harvest moon symbolised when farmers would need to start gathering in the food to prepare for the lean winter months. Sometimes, they did this by the light of the moon.
