你上个月看到满月了吗？平均每个月，地球上空都会出现一次满月。这是因为月球需要一个月的时间来完成围绕地球的另一个轨道，经历所有的阶段，并且再次被反射的阳光照亮整个面向地球的一半。许多土著文化给每个满月起了一个名字，过去的满月的名字包括冰月、呆在家里的月亮和安静的月亮。在现代西方历法的一月份，一些文化也将最近的满月命名为狼月，以纪念著名的嚎叫动物。这张“狼月”的照片拍摄于意大利阿尔卑斯山脉之上，是长曝光和短曝光相结合的照片。这张照片很引人注目，因为对一些人来说，周围的云就像狼的嘴，准备吞下狼月，而另一些人则把月亮看作狼的眼睛。

Did you see the full moon last month? During every month, on average, a full moon occurs in the skies over planet Earth. This is because the Moon takes a month to complete another orbit around our home planet, goes through all of its phases, and once again has its entire Earth-facing half lit by reflected sunlight. Many indigenous cultures give each full moon a name, and this past full moon's names include the Ice Moon, the Stay at Home Moon, and the Quiet Moon. Occurring in January on the modern western calendar, several cultures have also named the most recent full moon the Wolf Moon, in honor of the famous howling animal. Featured here above the Italian Alps mountains, this past Wolf Moon was captured in combined long and short exposure images. The image is striking because, to some, the surrounding clouds appear as a wolf's mouth ready to swallow the Wolf Moon, while others see the Moon as a wolf's eye.
