I've seen a lot of fine posts of the moon and I thought I'd add my two cents.

The first one was taken this past Tuesday with a Canon SX50. The moon was just hanging there in the western sky. I shot it on full auto and did no PP on it.

The second one of the full moon was taken almost a year ago with the same camera. Again, on full auto. I did tweak it a little in Lightroom just to give it a little different look.

Hope you enjoy them!

Moon 1 would be nice as a smile on a face, both good pictures.

Funny how I didn't see the smile until you mentioned it! But now that you did, that's all I see. LOL

Thanks! What helped a little is that the humidity has been low here in S. Florida so I didn't have to deal with all the moisture in the air diffracting the light.

I like them both, but #2 really blew me away. It's beautiful! :thumbup: :thumbup:
