In summary, The conversation was about sharing pictures of the pink super moon and how beautiful it was. The person who took the pictures didn't have a fancy telescope but still enjoyed them. Another person complimented the photos and suggested they would make for a great cover photo for a fantasy novel or poetry book. The original poster also commented on the pictures, describing them as "witchy" and pointing out how the clouds seemed to be "spitting out" the moon.

I particularly admire the center photo showing the moon framed by two trees. It would make a good cover photo for a fantasy novel or poetry book.
