camera fun

[cellio]

We have a beautiful full moon tonight. I attempted to capture it in bits. Earlier in the evening, about an hour after sunset, there was some gorgeous stuff going on with clouds that didn't photograph well because of interference from the city lights. (Someday I will be good enough to know what some of the settings on my camera mean, and then maybe I will be better at compensating for that.) About half an hour ago it was still pretty -- and brigher and farther from the offending lights -- so I tried again and got this userpic and the following picture. (The latter would have worked better if I could have toned down the light on the tree and let the moon come through more, like it did "for real". I wonder if I can fix that in Paint Shop Pro.)

Pretty moon...

Yeah, the moon was really amazing. It made me not mind so much that I had to walk back to the train yesterday night. (I usually get a ride, but the usual suspects were already gone, very busy, or had dead cars.) Also the weather was very nice...

Your picture captures the moon very well... I probably ought to have a picture of *our* moon to go with Europa & Io...
