Supermoon by Neevian, on Flickr

I thought it's supposed to be orange/red/gold?

is all about white balance

I decided to go with black and white.

Yesss. Can make it any shade of orange you want.

IMHO, I think there is huge different between "supermoon" and "lunar eclipse".
From what I've learn, lunar eclipse will give that "orange/red/gold" effect to the moon at several time/phase.
We even can see it with our naked eyes.

While "supermoon" (moon in perigee phase) is more about the distance between the moon and earth.
The only affected thing by supermoon phenomenon is "air pasang surut" (water tide I guess in english) and not the color of the moon.
Even if you see the moon look red in the past supermoon evet (23rd June 2013), it is causes by the bad haze that happen in Malaysia that time.

Like amduser said, you can play around with WB to change the original color, or just stick with Auto WB ;-)

To TS, nice try to shot this superluna photo
