Getting starry-eyed at the moon

Many people in Asia celebrate the fall harvest season with the Mid-Autumn Festival—and since the moon is the, um, star of the show, it's also known as the Moon Festival. The holiday falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month each year. Our photo features a moon installation from the festivities in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. The city is known for its colourful decorations and lively activities during the festival: Crowds flood the city to watch puppet shows, dragon dances, and parades lit by lanterns.
