The night after the blue moon

The blue moon on Sunday (see last photo) had other ideas - clouds rolled in and the sky was murky. πŸ˜…πŸŒ§οΈ

Not every shot goes according to plan, but tonight the cherry was on top - the moon from Northcliff was stunning, and Joburg's skyline was showing off as usual.

Silhouetted Johannesburg skyline as the sun sets behind Hillbrow Tower. One of those golden hour moments that reminds you just how striking this city can be.

Hillbrow, Johannesburg | May 2026


05/05/2026

Back in September 2025, Johannesburg was treated to a total lunar eclipse - and the Blood Moon rising next to the Hillbrow Tower did not disappoint. πŸ”΄πŸŒ•
This short timelapse was shot from Northcliff, watching the moon turn deep red as it passed through Earth's shadow. An incredible sight that reminded me why I love night photography in this city.
No filter. No edit. Just physics putting on a show.

The full moon over Johannesburg never gets old. And this month we get two full moons - a rare Blue Moon to end May. Don’t miss it

It's been a while, but it's always great to watch the moon appear close to the Hillbrow Tower and Ponte, photographed from Northcliff, Johannesburg.

Info for the techies: This is the Flower Moon, but strictly speaking, it's not the exact Full Moon β€” that peaked last night (when it was cloudy). Tonight it's in the waning gibbous phase but still ~99% illuminated. There's another full moon on 31 May β€” a rare double full moon in one month β€” so hopefully the weather plays along!
