Saturdays moon is supposed to be one of the largest in a long time! But this looks pretty big to me!

OK folks note the detail on these - on the full moon night you can not get this because of the full reflection of the sun - shootem now and after.

Hi Silver Fox,

Your photos look very good. Glad someone got a moon shot. I keep forgetting.

Those are great photos of our Lady, the moon. Can't wait to see her on tomorrow, can't believe it could look and bigger nor brighter than the ones you captured. Happy moon gazing!

Maybe it's just me, but they look just like the moon when it's not so close. Perhaps a shot with a terrestrial feature as a reference might be more dramatic.
