Today the super blue moon and blood moon coincide.The last time it happened 152 years ago. The second contact is at 8:51:47pm.On no account can I miss the rare opportunity to see the blue moon and blood moon.I go to a near square and take a photo of it with my smartphone.It is too small the photo to make out ,if don't enlarge it with fingers on the screen of smartphone.
It so happened that today is my wife's birthday.Whole family eat out to celebrate her birthday.Today is a really unforgettable day !.

@changjiangzhibin89 That's fair enough Chang, you certainly do a lot of visiting around the site. It's not necessary to write a post if you don't feel like it.

How nice for the moon to assist in celebrating your wife's birthday! Happy Birthday to her! It was too cloudy to see anything in Oregon this morning, though I did go out at 5 AM to see if anything was visible.

A happy belated birthday to your wife! And how special to have such rare moon moments on this particular day - she must have been thrilled! I completely missed the blood moon . . . I believe it was very early in the morning and I saw photos later from our downtown area in which the view was apparently quite spectacular. I was sad I missed it! But the blue moon . . . it looked huge - and for more than one night it seemed. I couldn't take good enough photos on my phone - so I didn't make too many attempts. Well I hope your wife had a wonderful birthday and sounds like it was a lovely family time out!!

@changjiangzhibin89 That is so wonderful - I am so happy that she was so happy 
! what a rare occasion to have such a day - a gift from the "universe" so to speak. I tried to take a photo of the blue moon - but it looked like a blur. The good thing is you saw it with your own eyes and will forever have the memory of seeing it in person - on your wife's birthday!

Thank you very much! Yes, she was so happy that day.Her birthday is on 15th day of the 12th lunar month when we can see the full moon ,but seeing the super blue ,blood moon on birthday is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.That day to us, the weather and time were favourable to seeing it,it was a pity,I didn't have a camera with telephoto lens.

@much2say Yes,It was a memorable day that lets us have a fond memory of it.I guess this is why there is a phrase of "once in a blue moon".

Wow, your wife's birthday is unforgetable bcoz it's also the appearance aftet 152 years of the blue moon and blood moon.
I was able to catch the blue moon when it came out. But not when it became the blood moon. I was already tired so we were in our bedroom restinv already.

Yes, it is indeed once in a blue moon! However I guess there were many people from all over the world who celebrated their birthdays that day.Luckily It was not the time to go to bed here when it appeared,only it was too small to see clearly.

I love the extra large moons too.However sometimes whether or not see them depends on the weather.

@changjiangzhibin89 - Yes, we get coastal fog here in California, so sometimes we cannot see the moon, either.
