The sky was especially nice, an inordinate amount of visible stars could be seen, along with wispy, low laying clouds here and there. I noticed this particular scene while driving, and pulled over by a field to get a shot of it with an incredibly wide-angle lens. Off in the distance you can see ground fog in front of a line of shrubs. The illumination seen on the clouds on the horizon I believe are from parking lot lights, or maybe aliens... here's hoping."

A 'blue moon', by definition, could be the fourth full moon during a 3-month season, or the second full moon in any given month. Friday's was the latter definition, and the night was absolutely gorgeous - completely clear sky, warm breeze, and all.
A friend and I headed down to the Hudson River before midnight and spent some time talking, taking in the moonlit landscape and get some photos - this was one of them. The term 'Once in a blue moon.' is an expression for something that doesn't happen often, and with good reason - the next blue moon won't be until January 31st, 2018. As for the next blue moon to appear during the summer? That won't be until August 31st, 2023. Let's hope it'll be another clear night!" |
