Moon November 07, 2005 17:43 CST


This shot of the moon was taken within minutes of the sunset posted below. Notice the blue sky in the sunset photo and the blue sky in this photo. The photo was taken with a 75-300 telephoto lens. Tripod mounted. I'm no astronomer. Amateur or otherwise. But I've had fun with the details in this photo. Try going to this website The Full Moon Atlas and compare the atlas with the photo details. Go to Section E-5 in the atlas. Click on the sector. Find the Crater Theophilus (100 km) next to the "T" in the word EAST. You can clearly see this crater in the photo.
