I don't recall ever managing to photograph two full Moons in one month before, so I was determined to have a go. It was quite tricky to capture this morning's 'Blue' Moon, because it never rose very high above the southern horizon: nevertheless an early rise gave me a couple of photos of May's second full Moon peeping through the trees.
Below is the result, together with the 'Flower Moon' of May 1st: I've also added views of Venus and Jupiter taken from my garage door to show how bright - and close together - they were at sunset.
