The rising supermoon of July 12, 2022 embedded in the blue arc of Earth's shadow, rimmed by the pink Belt of Venus band of twilight colours, all over the badlands formations of Dinosaur Provincial Park on the Red Deer River in Alberta, Canada. The blue band on the horizon is the shadow of the Earth cast onto the atmosphere opposite the sunset point. The pink Belt of Venus above the shadow is from red sunlight still illuminating the upper atmosphere, an effect that lasts only a few minutes at sunset or sunrise, and requires a very clear sky to show up, as it was this night. The badlands here were formed by sedimentary rocks laid down in oceans and eroded by glacial runoff of water. This was the evening before the official date of full moon, but the timing of the moonrise and placement of the moon well below the ecliptic meant it rose on July 12 almost at sunset with the sky still well-tinted with twilight, rather than the moon rising into a dark sky with too great a contrast to shoot, as it did the next night, July 13, when it was the official date of the mull moon.
