Blue Moon

Looking out of the window on the night of August 31st, there he was: Mr. Full Moon, just beautiful! I got my camera and - my first try at photographing the moon - took a few shots. To my surprise, some turned out well. Reading the newspaper next morning, I realized what special moon I had captured: the Blue Moon! I've often used the expression 'once in a blue moon' and love that old song 'Blue Moon' but now, I asked myself, what exactly is a 'Blue Moon' ? A 'Blue Moon' is referred to when 2 full moons appear in the course of one same month. In August, the first one appeared on the 2nd and the so called 'Blue Moon' on the 31st. I thought I'd scrap this rare occasion! If you too would love to see that 'Blue Moon', watch out for July 31st 2015!

 

(Needless to say that on the photos I took, the moon was not blue!! But, with the help of PS, I gave him that touch of 'Blue')

Beautiful photo. And great layout. The moon really was amazing at the end of the month. Your background is so pretty with the stars and I lie how the skyline is outlined. Stunning.
