The waning moon was seen in red color in Caracas (Venezuela), some days ago. The reason is the air pollution due to the forest fires that are happening in these days, in the region. This photo was taken January 29th.

Wow, fascinating capture. But the cause of this rare phenomenon is really sad :( I hope the fires will be contained and put out soon.

The fire season is starting. Some years, the fires are very serious. It seems that this year will be serious, it is very dry and the temperatures are high for this time of the year.

This is a very nice picture. I have always enjoyed photographing the moon, but it has its complexity and a telephoto lens is required. Congrats.

Thanks.
I like to take photos of the moon at different latitudes and compare them, I have published about that in the blog.
Indeed it has its complexity. These photos were taken with the camera of a cell phone. With approximately of 40x zoom (10x optical and the rest digital).
