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

Taken about an hour apart this evening ...

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.

Taken through a very fine mist so not as clear as I hoped. But great colour!!!

OK so not really my Moon but my unique view of the Moon from my back garden.

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.

Luna diurna

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.

Mister Moon stayed up all night and didn't know when to go to bed.

و القمر قدرناه منازل حتى عاد كالعرجون القديم .. سورة يس، آية 39

"And the Moon, ---We have measured for her mansions (to serve) till she returns like the old (and withered) lower part of a date stalk."

I cropped the actual shot and it seems closer than using 200mm coz its 10.2 Megapixels =)

I tried a redux of the Moon tonight, since it wasn't hazy. It is a slight bit better, but I think I can still do better. The moon was lower, so perhaps better to wait until it's high in the sky so the light is traveling through less atmosphere. Also, a quarter moon or so makes for a more dramatic terminator, when the craters and peaks are highlighted by the sun edge-on.

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

I had trouble with the clouds (in the way again!), but the moon finally moved into a clearing...

I wasn't able to catch the Blood Moon Eclipse, but this is my version of the almost full moon some hours before the phenomenon.
