When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie
(That's amore). In August 2017, wildfires in British Columbia produced enough smoke to cover most of western Washington. With little wind coming from the sea to disperse it, all of Seattle was choked in a thick, unpleasant haze for several weeks. The smoky air caused the full moon of 7 August to appear red. This picture was adjusted for contrast, but the colour was not changed.
