The Moon This Evening

Thanks Dave appreciate that.:thumb:

 

Looks like that after centuries of speculation you've at last provided proof that it is made of cheese:hehe:

 

dave fantastic photo well done

 

Heads up tomorrow night,[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Saturday night, Jan. 10th, another perigee Moon is coming. It's the biggest full Moon of 2009, almost identical to the one that impressed onlookers in Dec. 2008.[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Perigee full Moons come along once or twice a year. 2008 ended with one and now 2009 is beginning with another. It's the best kind of déjà vu for people who love the magic of a moonlit landscape.[/FONT]

 

Thank you Walnut for the info.

 

A pic from this morning...not as detailed as Dave's pics, but It got a nice atmosphere

 

Very nice indeed Ivory - It would make a good cover for a crime thriller novel!

OR! You could enter it in the GC monthly competition

 

Can't! It is SLIGHTLY enhanced ( I took it through the window, and some people really shoud clean their windows more diligently!). Thanks though! I also thought it had a very dark gothic look!

 

The full moon sat night cloud acting as a filter.




A shot of Venus just after sunset

 

You were lucky there Walnut! We had 100% thick cloud on Saturday and it wasn't much better last night either.
