In a sort of celestial warmup, the full moon will dive through Earth's shadow on Monday evening across Australian skies to produce a partial lunar eclipse that will be visible to observers throughout parts of North America, Asia and the Pacific region, weather permitting.
The full moon of June is known as the Strawberry Moon because it occurs during the short strawberry-harvesting season this month.
Here are my captures of the Strawberry's Moon partial Lunar Eclipse, taken with my Canon EOS50D and Tamron 200-500mm zoom lens...
