Sky - Super Blue Moon

Every so often, I try to take photos of astronomical phenomena. On August 30, 2023 I tried to photograph one of the biggest and brightest full moons of the year. This full moon was the second of two full moons in the month of August which made it a Blue Moon. In addition to being a Blue Moon, it was a supermoon, which is a full moon that is closer to Earth, making it appear slightly larger in the sky. 

Photograph was taken using a tripod with a Sony RX10 IV camera, (F4, 1/1600 sec, ISO-400, 600 mm focal length).
