I love to see the moon all year, but I wonder if there are certain times when the moon is closer to us than it is any other time? does anyone know?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1165450126302205462006-12-06T18:08:00.000-06:002006-12-06T18:08:00.000-06:00I forgot to mention that if you want to see someon...I forgot to mention that if you want to see someone who REALLY knows how to take photos of the moon, go to <A HREF="http://tenderogil.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_tenderogil_archive.html" REL="nofollow">Manuel Tendoro's November archive</A> and scroll down to see his moon shots.

The leaves directly in front of the moon form a profile view (facing right) of a man's head, shoulders and chest. He has dark hair, a pointy nose, and is possibly wearing a tux and a bowtie.<BR/><BR/>Holly, I checked your site at noon today and discovered you'd posted about the moon, too. "Great minds..." <BR/><BR/>I'd LOVE to have a tripod, but I don't. I lean against the house to steady my hands while I try to take a moon photo, but I still end up throwing out a dozen shots for every decent one.<BR/><BR/>Kat, that would have been enough to convince me, too.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1165431673568134502006-12-06T13:01:00.000-06:002006-12-06T13:01:00.000-06:00That picture is stunning!

It was fun to hear the guys, who did so well with the tough warrior poses struggle.<BR/><BR/>Velvet, you take wonderful moon shots! It's so difficult. Do you have a tripod???
