Details:
I captured the full moon and lunar corona at Chongqing, China on May 7th. It's is a composite of 7 images from 1/200 second to 1 second long, preserving contrast and detail by naked view. This full moon come just two days after the moon reaches perigee, or the closest point to Earth in its orbit, making this a "supermoon”. This May full moon is 2020’s third and final full supermoon.
When i captured this image at 4 AM, the thin clouds pass through the full moon. It cast a beautiful color rings around the moon. As the the full moon of May is also called the Flower Moon. It seems that the full moon and lunar corona looks like a celestial flower.
