Harvest Super Blood Moon (Explore)

with about 2X digital zoom. It's a Harvest Moon because it's the full moon nearest the Autumnal Equinox. It's a Super Moon because the full moon occurred near perigee, the moon's closest approach to Earth. It's a Blood Moon because it's in total eclipse, bathed in sunlight that has passed through the Earth's atmosphere.
