A "super moon' because the moon is at its closest approach to the earth, thus appearing larger and brighter than usual. "Blue Moon" is the second full moon in a calendar month. This collision of lunar phenomena, that is a super moon, a blue moon and a lunar eclipse occurred simultaneously tonight, in an unusual event that hasn’t happened in over 150 years. <br />Shooting location: Athens , Greece on 31 January 2018. <br /> Gear used: Sony a6500, 400mm tele lens. <br />http://www.epocalibera.com/2018/01/super-blue-blood-moon-rises-acropolis-athens.html<br />----- <br />Links:<br />Lunar eclipse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_eclipse<br />Supermoon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermoon<br />Blue moon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_moon<br />-----<br /> If you have any questions or comments please leave them below.
