Moon shot
December 22nd, 2008

Full moon over Floyd County, July 2008.
I love taking photos of the moon and enjoy pulling it in close for detail. The photo above was shot with a Canon EOS-1Ds MKIII, a 21.7 megapixel DSLR, and a 400mm f/2.8 Canon telephoto lens.
I recently received an email informing me of a “perigee Moon” this Saturday night, January 10, 2009. The following link is to the NASA announcement: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2009/08jan_bigmoon2009.htm . I immediately thought of your moon photography. Hope the weather conditions are favorable for viewing. Thanks for sharing your photography.
