First Quarter 56% Full

wondering, why EXIF shows only 220 mm, when I had fully open 600 ? ...
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.

Dear friends!

The "Super Moon" will be full tomorrow night and will be closer to earth than any time since 1948. As the forecast for tomorrow is not great, here is what an almost full moon looks like tonight. It won't come this close again until 25 November 2035.
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.
Last Friday night I wanted to take an image of the lunar eclipse, but it wasn't visible in the valley where we live. Hence, we decided to drive up the hill next to our house and after waiting a few minutes the clouds moved and the moon emerged. Since we were pretty late I didn't catch the blood moon, but I'm happy that I got an image despite some troubles. First, I'm not yet very familiar with my new Sony A7II and changing settings took me longer than usual. Moreover, my cheap Tamron tele lens doesn't have a tripod collar which means that my ballhead was moving due to the front heavy weight. Anyway, I think it turned out reasonably well. Hope you like it!
Falce di luna. Lo si dice della luna nelle prime fasi della sua periodica crescita, quando è troppo luminosa per i ladri e troppo buia per gli amanti.

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 ..
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.
Went out on this relative clear evening to catch the moon there in the 'blue sky'. There was some very very thin cloud layer there that added just a hint of glow as the sun was setting.
You can compare this view to the one night before in the darker sky. Like the moon here on the blue sky at sunset.
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.
