The weather in Singapore is often so cloudy that we cannot be sure we will see any astronomical phenomena. So it was with some surprise that the January 31 moon was well visible through most of its phases. For the record, it was a Blue moon (the second full moon in a month), a Blood moon (due to a phase in the eclipse when partial sunlight hits the moon) and a Super moon (as the moon is closest to the Earth at this time).
These are my intermittent attempts to catch the moon through its phases over four hours, as seen from Singapore!







Fantastic photos – thanks for sharing them. I saw the super moon here, but not the blood moon. You can understand people thousands of years ago believing it must be some mystical portent.

Fun to see pictures of this from the other side of the world. Looks like it happened early nighttime for you. We had to go outside at 4:45 a.m. to see the best part of it. My baby woke up around then, so we got a wake-up call easily. 🙂
