The full moon could clearly be seen above Yokohama's Bay Bridge.

Clearly visible as it lit up and moved though the evening sky, a full, mid-autumn harvest moon occurred on the 19^th. After dusk, the moon began to climb the sky faster than the sun could set. At 5:48PM, it colored the sky above Yokohama Bay Bridge in Yokohama Port. As the night sky sparkled more brightly with the ascent of the moon, cameramen’s shutters in Nishi-Ku, Yokohama City's Rinko Park repeatedly clicked, capturing the moment.

The next chance to see a mid-autumn, full harvest moon arrives 8 years from now in 2021.

中秋の名月の１９日、晴れ渡る夕空にくっきりと満月が姿を見せた。日の入りより早く昇り始めた月は、午後５時４８分、横浜ベイブリッジの上で横浜港に彩りを添えた。輝きを増しながら夜空へと昇る月を撮ろうと、横浜市西区の臨港パークではカメラマンらがしきりにシャッターを切っていた。
