for all you moon-lovers out there

biggest, brightest full moon of 2008

tonight's moon will be about 30% brighter and 14% larger than other full moons seen this year, as the moon will be closer than usual.


Get yer cameras out, folks.

How did I know you were going to say that?

Thanks for the tip off - I'd forgotten about it, but hope to snap some good shots of the moon with behind the Victorian skyline of central Winchester.

A huge crop though as even with my 70-300mm full frame lens I couldn't get any closer. Best get the tripod from the car...

Wish I had a decent zoom for my D50...

Just been out and can't see anything but cloud. The 70-300 (effectively a 100-400mm ish) was about £100 from Amazon Market place. Not the best lens but interesting.

Showed a couple of people at college the Hitler/D3X youtube thing as mentioned on flickr (both cannon and Nikon users) and they were crying with laughter about the whole thing.
