BRYAN EATON/Staff photo. The moon rises over Plum Island in a view from the Newburyport waterfront on Thursday night, a day early from the actual full moon which allows more light in the foreground for photographers to give a better reference of place. The actual full moon last night is the Harvest Moon which is the closest to the autumnal equinox and there was a partial eclipse, but not visible in the United States.
