The Blue Moon


Last night, above my little home.

"Once in a blue moon, people will surprise you....
And once in a while people may even take your breath away."

    2. Sadly, I was involved in a work project and forgot to look. Ah, well.
      I am smiling that you have a "dedicated" moon camera!

    1. ha! You know, I can't get these photos will my nicer camera ...not in any setting or with any lens! I go back to my point-in-shoot and zoom in and snap. It's the strangest thing! It's the one reason I won't get rid of that camera...it's now my 'moon camera'. haha....

  4. Lovely photo. You never get to see the moon like this in London. And v impressed how clear the craters show at the South Pole. If it is the moon's South Pole.

    1. Is Big Ben blocking the view? haha.

      I think that south pole point is my favorite part of all...incredible that my camera can pick that up!

  5. Too many buildings, too many street lights, too much pollution and typically too much cloud. London is not a good spot for observing the sky. But for many other things it's great.
    Well your camera does an impressive job.

    1. I agree with Eddie - the phrase is endearing and makes us feel a little closer to each other, I think. xo

  10. So cool! I had a hunch you would be posting a picture of the blue moon. I'm glad you did. It's cloudy and rainy here. I won't be able to see it very well.

  11. When I got up this morning and tossed the curtains back there was the big blue moon setting. It was beautiful. I am going to have the blue moon song ear worming in my head. : ) Great picture you have there. You really are doing some nice photos.
