The strawberry moon occurs once every 70 years. Typically i forgot all about it and went to bed, woke with a start at about 4 am and remembered. Fortunately the moon was still visible
The moon didn't show up in our sky on the Super Blue Blood Moon day. Clouds were so heavy.
Two days later, it finally popped out. So naughty. Still very bright.
Top-left part is already missing (on your moon, right-side starts shrinking, check it out tonight).
Moon behaves differently between North and South.
I am always fascinated.

Increased the ISO some to see if it provided better overall results ... I think the version at ISO 2500 was better. But then that could have also been because the wind was gusting more or less.
The winds were around 20 to 30 MPH last evening ... and bitter cold with temperatures heading towards 15 degrees F.
Had to have the gloves off to manually focus the lens ... brrrrr.
Tonight's 'Supermoon' (29/08/2015) is the first of three spectacular lunar shows this year
That means the moon is very full and bright in the sky, because it has come very close to earth.
Tonight's full moon is just 222,631 miles from earth - one of the closest approaches of the year.
Once in a blue moon... actually, this is a "blue moon" because its the second full moon within a calendar month, which doesn't strike me as something all that interesting. What IS nice is when moonrise coincides with sunset and you get this kind of beautiful lighting.
Feeling closer than ever before!
The full moon on November 14, 2016, will present the closest supermoon of the year (356,509 kilometers or 221,524 miles). What’s more, this November 14, 2016 full moon will showcase the moon at its closest point to Earth thus far in the 21st century (2001 to 2100), and the moon won’t come this close again until the full moon of November 25, 2034. 18 years to go!!!
Chilling over a bottle of Red wine the sun had gone down & Mr Moon had popped up it was a clear night luckly only had one glass of vino looked up from the decking I saw this incredable Moon over Bury....
same Image but cropped to show more detail ..
Used a new technique for this one which makes it look more 3D. Quite impressed with my birding lens. I didn't think it had good clarity concerning the moon and no tripod used
The weather has been horrible for last weeks, cold and raining, feels like autumn. I hope the weather will change soon before all the leafs falls off. Last evening I was able to see moon briefly.
Super moon on Sydney sky -14 of November 2016.
Late that night the sky cleared and we could see the largest moon in 69 years.

The Moon is the only celestial body to which humans have travelled and upon which humans have performed a manned moon landing. The first artificial object to escape Earth's gravity and pass near the Moon was the Soviet Union's Luna 1, the first artificial object to impact the lunar surface was Luna 2, and the first photographs of the normally occluded far side of the Moon were made by Luna 3, all in 1959. The first spacecraft to perform a successful lunar soft landing was Luna 9; this was soon followed with the first successful lunar soft landing by Surveyor 1 and the first unmanned vehicle to orbit the Moon by Luna 10, all in 1966. The United States (U.S.) Apollo program achieved the only manned missions to date, resulting in six landings between 1969 and 1972. Human exploration of the Moon ceased with the conclusion of the Apollo program, although a few robotic landers and orbiters have been sent to the Moon since that time. Several countries have announced plans to return humans to the surface of the Moon in the 2020s.

Well, the March is here. It doesn't mean spring for us, same frost and strong north wind. Maybe just light becomes a bit warmer, with some gold.
The view of the full moon over the early morning city in the first rays of the rising sun, about -30.
Thank you for all the comments and faves, my friends.

smoke from the wildfires has shadowed the moon to orange . . . pretty & sad/scary simultaneously . . .

This early morning I went to Stanford University to experience the rare celestial trifecta: A supermoon (14% bigger and 30% brighter than usual), a blood moon (lunar eclipse where the moon is in the shadow of the earth), and a blue moon (the second full moon in a month) at the same time. I used the water fountain to turn the blood moon into a comet. I captured it with a 600mm Tamron lens.
I processed a balanced HDR photos from a RAW exposure, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and reduced the color saturation. I welcome and appreciate your critical feedback.
