Night of the Supermoon

Panasonic DMC-G1, Nikkor 500mm f8 Reflex

Did anyone else see it last night? It was the biggest full moon of the year, and quite spectacular.

This was taken right outside my house. I set up my tripod, and I tried my 500mm, and also my 300mm and 300mm w/2x teleconverter. The 500mm gave the best results. The 300mm by itself did not give enough magnification, and the 300mm with teleconverter was not sharp enough.

We watched it rise up over the ridge last night. You should haul that big beast out more often. Nice image.

I watched it from the roof. It rose from behind St. Francis hotel.

It looks like a big orange, waiting to be peeled...
