Contest Directions: 
Depending on the location, late night December 20 or early morning December 21, the full moon will be darkened by Earth's shadow as our planet passes between it and the sun. December 21 is also the winter solstice, the longest night of the year, after which the days will begin to grow longer. Coupled with the lunar spectacle, it means we're in for an especially dark eve. Last time the winter solstice and full lunar eclipse happened at the same time was 456 years ago.
Let's recall that a full lunar eclipse saved Christopher Columbus on February 29, 1504. Columbus correctly calculated the day of the eclipse and when his crew ran out of food and faced hostile local inhabitants in Jamaica, he told the locals that if they do not cooperate he would make the moon disappear. After Columbus "made the moon disappear", locals begged him to return the moon to the sky, for any food and supplies he would need.
Photoshop the moon any way you wish, or anything related to the moon. Some examples are: merging the moon with some objects, showing what life would be like if the moon ruled the world, including the moon in movies and paintings, etc.
