We’re usually chasing sunsets down here, but the Moon deserves a bit of attention too 🌙

A few dates to save for your next evening looking up over Bournemouth:

🌕 25–26 October • Hunter’s Moon
October’s full Moon peaks early on the 26th, so tonight is a good time to catch it looking full.

🌕 24 November • Beaver Moon
One to look out for after sunset, named for the time of year beavers prepare for winter.

🌕 23–24 December • Cold Moon supermoon
A little extra light for Christmas Eve. This full Moon will be closer to Earth, making it appear slightly bigger and brighter than usual.

🌘 20–21 February 2027 • Lunar eclipse
Earth’s faint outer shadow will gently dim the Moon, with the strongest effect around 11.12pm. A subtle one, rather than a red “blood Moon”.

All we need now is Bournemouth’s cloud cover to cooperate 🤞

Save this for a clear evening, and tag us in your local Moon photos. We’d love to share a few!

A huge thank you to all of you who collab, share content, engage or share. Here’s to getting the best side of Bournemout...

This week’s is Bournemouth’s Jake Williams , and there’s a good chance you’ve seen his work around town without realising.

From his work at Alum Chine to the arches for AUB, Jake’s been adding plenty of colour to some familiar spots. Always nice to find out who’s behind something you’ve walked past and enjoyed.

And alongside the local work, he’s got projects for the Paris Olympics, Formula 1, Adobe and Polaroid under his belt too. Not bad, eh?

We’ve picked out a few favourites to share here, but head over to Jake Williams for more and show him a bit of local love.
