Super Blue Moon
Once In A Blue Moon
Super Blue Moon more rare than the Blue Moon what fun we have tonight, a full moon twice in one month.
Tonight is the night to capture a glimpse, to be honest I have been watching slowly over the past couple of weeks to here is a glimpse of what I enjoyed during month of August.
Blue moons occurs every two to three years, super blue moon more rare with around twenty year intervals making the moon appear approximately 7% larger.
This occasion gives rise to the special company in Saturn moving in tandem across the sky, closer to earth than normal.
This triggers extreme low and high tides along coastlines something to remember when being at the sea.
The big event last night and again tonight, very fortunate clear skies without a cloud in sight!
English idiom hence refers to "Once in a Blue Moon" for good reason it seldom happens, from Elizabethan times.
"Blue Moon" a classic song written Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1934, sung by many artists became an absolute hit on charts at number one in 1961 covered by The Marcles. Source - YouTube!
I will be out dancing in the moonlight once again tonight, who knows I may never see another! Be sure to join in wherever you live in the world, look up drawing on the power of Mother Nature.

Hello dear friend @joanstewart good day
You are blessed to be able to observe these beautiful moons, we prepared ourselves but the night was cloudy, we could not see them, it was indihnate to have missed seeing this majesty
beautiful shots, appreciate you sharing
have a beautiful afternoon
First time in awhile without clouds, watching and waiting is all part of the fun seeing this event.
Have a wonderful day, perhaps better luck tonight to catch a glimpse of the moon.
I love how you study the several moons and when they occur. You’re really a genius. The moon looks beautiful by the way
Moon growing and going over one can never tire of, very special seeing this one.
Thanks for visiting and kind comment.
You’re welcome

Hola friend, how nice that you were able to enjoy the blue moon, here in Venezuela they have talked a lot about it. I don't know if the light pollution makes that we can't see the magnitude of the beauty you are supposed to see.
With regular power outages here one advantage is eliminating light pollution.
We are fortunate being able to see the moon rise, not over the ocean but close enough, setting is never a problem, walk the dog regularly day and night.
Oh my god,woww
I consider you real lucky to have a look at these beautiful views.
I wish that i could ever see this type of view.
No tall buildings to hide the moon, we are lucky as you say. Thanks for visiting and have a lovely day.
You are very welcome.

Have a wonderful Friday Spring day 1st September, HivePUD too....
Awesome pics... and for this blue moon, it comes with one of the big tides here (close to 10 meter - "normal" is around 7). The sea is going to take landfall.
Sea sounded big last night, where we live crashing waves echo up the valley, moons massive power most definitely telling after an event like this.
Thanks to @ladiesofhive for visiting.
Damn good captures there!
No light pollution?
Not much haze from humidity as in Summer.
Lights off with constant blackouts (power outages).
Street lights don't work either, criminals have cut them all to plan robberies.
Always on guard and vigilant, had some 'shoppers' in our garden last night around 03h30, 'free' shopping spree around vehicles. Killed in it's tracks when my son woke and called our local private security. Did you know private security companies out number our police force by 4:1....
Wow! And I bet the cops are corrupt too, shame thst you have to resort to private security, but I would do likewise if needed
People help each other as much as they are able, with poverty criminal element is evident, with elections looming next year things will get worse before they get better.
Great, you have been lucky to get cool and clear images of the Super Moon. We have only seen rain clouds here, but there will be another full moon ... one day in future 😀

Weather was ideal for us to watch the moon over the last couple of weeks, almost as if to say you had your turn it clouded over completely yesterday.
!BEER
It would have been ideal for us in the last couple of days with almost no clouds, but it doesn't look any good when the moon isn't full.
I don't mind though because we're having a great time here 🏖️
Last night's sunset ...
Have a great week Joan 🌞

The moon was awesome here too, Joan. There were a couple hurricanes stirring in the Atlantic. Luckily they missed us but one called Idalia made landfall in Florida, U.S. and left an terrible destruction. This hurricane came when super moon was closest to the earth and with the moon's gravitational pulls the tides are even higher. This affects and makes the storm surge worse than normal. Otherwise beautiful moon to view.
Did read about Idalia, seaboard would have larger affect by tides especially being happening during a hurricane. Our Western shores also encountering some extreme weather conditions, here on the East coast it was clear for a change.
Nice shots, so nice for me to get out and shoot them moon for the first time. Was it an epic night for you as it was for me? Thanks for sharing.
Hunt down the moon whenever it is up above, this was a special event although I could not capture Saturn as well, it was there.
Yeah, me too. All good it was still fun.
Interesting that you had the moon photographed for days in a series. I find it amazing how the size of the moon affects tides.
I was at the beach this week and I had a selfie with the moon, I will share one of these days. Interestingly you were also having a good time capturing moments of the moon.
!PIZZA
Moon played such a large part of growing up, grand parents believed you cut hair at certain times, my father planted seeds on a growing moon to be in the ground by full moon for better crop, not sure if there is any truth to it, I still do it.
Every full moon here in Warner Beach many get together to do a beach walk, dogs are welcome too. The walk on full moon evening watching the moon rise over the sea.
!LUV have fun enjoying the beach on warmer evenings.

! help(no space) to get help on Hive. InfoSame with my parents they had this belief of looking out for the moon when it is out smaller than a quarter size, the call it new moon and it was time to pray for a better new month, I reluctantly participated then. 😃
Sounds like a nice walk to have on the beach to watch the moon rise over the ocean.
Most probably some truth in old beliefs, beach walk always advertised in local newspaper, folk arrive and enjoy the walk in a group making it safer.
I would participate in the walk if I was there, I like things like that 😃
Something that has been happening for years here, most enjoyable although I have not been myself in a long time.
That is good, the community or the organizers should keep at it.
We get those periods when we are not ourselves, at times we snap out of it quicker, sometimes a bit longer.
Started with mainly a woman wishing to walk her dog, invited the community to join in for safety sake, so the ball started rolling about twenty years ago.
It takes one person to get a movement like this going, she will always be remembered for this.

Most enjoyable and fortunate, since the 1st we have had cloud cover with little rain.
