Blue Moon tonight~

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 =)

Super Moon will rise tonight!!!

yes, super moon is just what it sound like strangely LARGE moon, it should be a spectacular view if you happen to step outside tonight or early morning Sunday morning. This phenomenon happens once a year when the Moon is closest to the Earth....the result it'll be about 14% larger and 30% brighter than usual and it'll become the fullest around 7am Sunday 6.23 this should be an good chance for everyone to snap some cool photos! "The full Moon has a reputation for trouble," wrote Tony Phillips, an astronomer who maintains NASA's Science News site . "It raises high tides, it makes dogs howl, it wakes you up in the middle of the night with beams of moonlight stealing through drapes. http://abcnews.go.com/
