I'm impressed. Did you crop the picture to get the moon to look so big? Or use a telescope? Or is that just using the zoom on your camera?
I did crop the picture down to this size, and yes, I had the camera zoomed all the way in.
The lens is an 18mm - 135mm but the camera has a 1.6x sensor so that makes it the equivalent of 216mm max zoom on a 35mm film camera.
I'm looking forward to a full moon rising on the horizon when it appears even bigger and yellow/orange. I'll see what I can come up with next time that happens.

If you REALLY have your heart set on getting a shot of a full moon I could always call you the next time I'm getting into the shower.
I would love to get a picture of the moonrise, but it is so hard to do since I am at work or on the way home when it starts to appear. Maybe I can get something on th next round. I'll have to check the date, but if it is closer to the endc of next week, I may have a chance.

According to Google calendar, the next full moon will be the 21st. Does the huge, colorful moonrise happen at the same time as a full moon? I've never paid that much attention before.
