Last few years I have become very aware of its phase and time of the day. I can't say I am affected unless it is going to be a good photo op

Last few months the moon has been particularly bright and rises in the late afternoon so it is visible all night. I notice this because I have this big window really high up in my living room. There is always some light but it is distinctly different when the moon is in the right location and phase. Could this be playing a role?

This is one of my favorite daytime pictures of the moon
