Personally I would have tinted the second moon red and tagged it as Mars.

OK competition time.
The first person to photograph this phenomenon will get an empty can of XXXXXXXXX beer.
Go for it.

aye, I'm highly disappointed at the quality of the editing.
LOLOL
Yet, people will still believe.
I swear, I'm going to HAVE to start up a dooms day cult to help finance my Astronomy habits.

I noticed the larger moon must be spinning quite fast, it seems to have a bulge.

A quite ....ahh..... interesting selection of 'news'. I was surprised that George W is gay and that Megan Fox is a man. But I was quite amazed by Heidi Montag. After looking at her 'predicament' I've also had second thoughts - in fact I'm up to about my fourth or fifth thought right now.

Busby!! It always happens in the western suburbs of Sydney! Is this second moon perhaps just an AFL promotion for their new side. I'll blow up the photo and see if I can see the AFL logo on that second moon....
