The Blue Moon of August 2012

This depicts photos of the full moons that occurred in August of 2012.

In case you’re living in a cave, you probably heard of the blue-moon event which happened in August 2012.  According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_moon), a blue moon is the second full moon in a calendar month and is a rare event which happens every 2 or 3 years.  In case you’ve missed it, you have another chance to see it.  The next blue-moon event will be on July 31, 2015.  Mark you calendar.

Here are the photos which I’ve taken during the event using Sony SLT-A77 camera and Tamron 70-300 f/4-5.6 SP USD lens.
