       The full moon in August, called a Sturgeon Blue moon, got its name as anglers believed it helped them catch bigger freshwater fish.

       It has also been called the grain, green corn and barley moon - inspired by crops that can be harvested in the summer month.

       It was also seen rising above a cruise ship off Weymouth in Dorset.
