Blue moon

Just now I stepped out of the back door, and there was the moon - as full as it'll ever be, and as nearly blue as I've ever seen it. And it was surrounded by a huge halo, as wide as half the sky, as if one of the rings of Saturn had come adrift and wafted down over Reading. It almost made me cry, but I didn't, I just sighed.

  1. It was here too. A huge, vast yellow moon with clouds flying by. Looked really wild but I did feel part of the universe!

  2. Sounds as if you folks should have picked up paint brushes and canvas ;)) or even a camera?
