SUPER BLOOD WOLF MOON 2019.

Super Full Moon on the 21 January 2019

It fully prepared me to photograph the Super Full Moon on January 21, 2019. I intended to photograph the moon from my rooftop since it provided a great perspective on the horizon. From the rooftop, I witnessed the clouds gathering and the temperature dropping. With the rain beginning to fall, I had to run for shelter. I will have to take a picture of the Full Moon on the 22nd, it seems.

At around 9 pm, I walked my dogs out and low and behold Chanda Mama, peeked out from behind the cloud cover. Smiled at me and said cheer up ole man, take up your camera and light up my world from the Abode of the Gods.

I wasted no time. I immediately rushed and got my gun and managed a few fast shots at the smiling moon. The Wolf moon then faded behind a heavy blanket of cloud cover.

Later in the night, we had a pretty heavy shower, much needed for refreshing the arid hillsides.

Photographers were also busy recording the Luna eclipse that was taking place. Does anyone recall the bearded Ching-Chong man on the moon while they were kids? It had me thinking here was all humanity busy clicking the eclipse of the moon and posting it on shared media. How was our man doing ?? He must have been busy shooting the Solar eclipse, which presented itself to him. The Chinese, with their high-tech equipment, could have covered the Solar eclipse. Unfortunately, they were on the dark side of the moon. The Solar eclipse from there must have been spectacular.

Cheers All My first Howl to you

ARAWOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!

The Super moon seen over Mount Abu

The Super moon is seen over Mount Abu

Did capture the much talked of’ Super Moon’ with my not-too-super Sony Digital camera last night as it made its appearance over the hill facing my house. I really wonder what effect did the moon have on the Earth as a whole. Did it unleash a pack of Lunatics after all human upper attic is a mushy grey matter that if struck with the right amount of Luna could render one a raving lunatic?

I saw quite a few crazy Abuites that day but I assure you it wasn’t the effect of the Super Moon but of our local weed Bhang and the hooch that was guzzled down yesterday. We celebrate Holi the colourful festival in a big way here in Rajasthan, with glasses of either ‘Thandai’ (a concoction of chilled milk, bhang and dried fruits) or booze. I should have taken a few short videos of these flying souls that would have been some sight to see anyway, bear with me and have a look at the Super Moon through my camera.
