Details:
A blue inverted moon! Atmospheric rarity? Not at all, actually, it's a ghost image of the moon in my own camera. Rather than some recent contributors seem to suppose, this kind of images are atmospheric not at all. The tiny blue image simply is an internal reflection in the camera lens. I found it in a test photograph of the moon, in order to focus the camera for taking some noctilucent clouds. The message is that ghost images always can be interpreted as internal effects of the lens, if they were not observed visually.

what causes a visual ghost or double moon? My daughter saw one and then decided she would take a photo to show me - with her iphone:( - so it is not of any value.
