Last week we were driving home and I saw a gorgeous moon hovering over Seguin -- so low to the horizon that it looked absolutely enormous. I couldn't believe I didn't have my digicam (I didn't think I'd need it going to the gym, lol.) so we raced home so I could pick it up and Mark went searching with me for a good shot. We found a spot and I set up the tripod to practice on the new digicam and liked some of the shots but I still need to learn more about all the settings. This one wasn't so bad so I thought I'd share it. I didn't touch it up besides cropping some of the dark sky out of it. It was chilly that night!

Glad you shared this. It is a great pic. Wonderful job.
That is an amazing shot of the moon. This reminds me of a funny story. A friend and I went out for dinner and we noticed the moon. I tried numerous times to get a shot and no luck. So now my nickname became "moon chaser". LOL!!
