While I was out last night with the dogs I glanced up at the sky and said to myself, "Self, it has been a while since you shot the moon. Is tonight the night?" And then I answered myself, "Self, that sounds like a wonderful idea on such a clear night like tonight. What would I do without you?"
Well, here is what "Self" ended up with. I think I have done better...but not bad for handheld(my tripod is somewhere in the basement...I think)

Re: Shoot the Moon
Cool shots.
You just reminded me that I too have not taken moon pics in ages.

Re: Shoot the Moon
Please tell Self his/her shots look nice to me Jon.
I have spoken many times to my Self. In fact, once I tried to get in touch with the female side of my Self (they say there is one in there somewhere).
I made contact.
She had an injunction issued against me!
No more introspection for me!

Re: Shoot the Moon
What I can't work out in my head (was never any good at science in school) is why there is a different view of the moon's surface between the southern and northern hemisphere. Is there a sort of 'idiot's guide' that would explain it to someone who just never did get what physics was about? I need a simple diagram.

I very often talk to myself. It's the only way I can have an intelligent conversation. Originally Posted by Loose Canon

I do the same thing! Originally Posted by killwilly

Only, I tend to give up, throw my hands in the air and walk away since the other guy is such an idiot.
