the blue moon is not actually blue it's talking about the 2nd full moon in a month. in Aug 1st 2012 it's the first full moon for this month and today Aug 31st 2012 is the 2nd full month this month. the next time it'll happen will be in 2015. here are a few of my photos done with a 5D II + 100L 2.8 it's not really ideal because it's not 200mm+ but it turned out ok. the 1st / 2nd are original color it is a bit blue tinted because of the reflection of blue sky + cloud the 3rd one I changed the temperature to cooler tone and added a frame =) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/29/blue-moon-2012_n_1840504.html
