First Quarter 56% Full

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

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.
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!
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.
Thanks a lot for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc ...
Always very much appreciated !

Moments pass, and time moves on
But dreams remain for just as long
As there's dreamers, all the dreamers

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.

As the rich, golden puddle of moonbeams dances gleefully upon the borders of the crisp, sharp edged shadows of darkness, the usual nightly cacophony is strangely absent as the mist begins to shroud the forest in silence.
Something must be amiss; this is too perfect. The silence is broken, a sound like rain is coming from the creek. The water darts everywhere with the sound of a million voices whispering secrets. The air is warm and heavy, filled with the pungent scent of death. We know HE is near.....

Full moon over Juizhou Island (九洲岛). Shot from a rock outcrop close to Juizhou Port (九洲港). A 60 sec long exposure with light trails of a ferry arriving from Shenzhen.
