Super Moon

Here's my shot of the big moon.  My hands were shaking but the 450 equiv.. mm lens did a nice job, I think.

Bet Bruce comes up with a nice shot

Nice photo for a full moon, Al.

As you know, the full moon has little contrast and is washed out cuz it's a direct face-on lighting angle.   Do some when the moon is less than a quarter and notice the "terminus" where the shadow meets the lighted area. This narrow dividing area of sharp shadows can show rock slides, very detailed cratering and mountain peaks.  Each night there is a different area highlighted as the terminus moves across the moon's face.

I stood outside and looked at it before it went behind the clouds.

I looked at the moon last night. 

Now I want to work AM with old tube gear.

AM lunatics are good for the hobby.
