Last night’s images of July’s full moon, also known as the “Deer Moon”, were quite impressive.
The full moon lit up the Greek sky yesterday and offered a unique, magical sight.
The photographer of the Intimenews agency was in Nafplio and captured the majesty of the full moon.

Where did the name “Deer Moon” come from?
This month’s moon is also known as the ‘Deer Moon’. According to the Almanac, July is typically the time when male deer’s antlers grow during an annual cycle of shedding and rebirth.
There are several other names for the “Deer Moon” that come from Native Americans, according to Western Washington University. Names such as “Hot Moon” refer to summer weather, while terms such as “Blueberry Moon” and “Ripe Corn Moon” indicate the best times to harvest fruit and other crops.
When is the August Full Moon?
We will see the Full Moon of August on the 19th of the next month.
