The Full Moon of April, also known as Pink Moon rises "over" the village of Puebla de Gusman and the Chapel of the Virgin of La Penha in Spain in an image across border , captured from the village of Montes Altos -Mertola - Portugal, on the 6th of April 2023.
In the center of the image, the church of Santa Cruz and, to the right, the hill where the Chapel of the Virgin of La Penha is located.
The village of Puebla de Guzman is at a distance of 26.5km in a straight line, being this image a personal record in terms of distance to the object/target and one of the most demanding in terms of planning accuracy.
Due to the distance between the place from which the image was taken and the compressor effect of the telephoto lens, the Moon, which in reality always has the same angular diameter ~0.5º, has an apparent diameter of 237m, seeming comparatively much bigger.
