For Neil by hjbenson

For Neil

Today was the funeral for Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon. Tonight's Blue Moon is a fitting tribute - the next Blue Moon will be in July 2015.

I saw this photo and ran over to the window to see the blue moon, but we only have clouds. :-( Thanks for sharing your blue moon---nice tribute to Armstrong.

A fitting to Neil Armstrong. I remember everyone in Malta stuck to the tv to watch this great event.

A lovely image and a thoughtful tribute to the great man. I was just a teenager when the first landing took place. Events in those early days seem to have a greater influence than more recent ones (Sign of age?).

@julieco Thank you Julie, Gail and I were newly weds and we watched it on our new colour tv. Thank you for the challenge, it will be fun to come up with ideas for it.
