Show us photos in which the main subject is the moon in all its many guises. Difficulty - no butt cheeks.
Thanks for the theme suggestion, redwoodcruzr! |

Unless someone wants to do a "I accidentally the whole moon" picture. (I want to try that, but I don't quite know how hard it will be. I will probably learn why it is impossible) |

I saw that, too, and as Murphy's Law would have it, we're going to have nothing but rain and clouds until tomorrow  |

Just in case you haven't heard - lunar eclipse on Feb 9th (Monday)
Apparently not visible in the Eastern US though... |

A good place to see it when it does happen:
Wikipedia.
Sweet, visible in western US. Hope Colorado is "western" enough. |

I, apparently, suck at this game. The last one (August) was visible on the east coast, but not Hawaii..... |

| Awesome. I think I've got three decent ones for this contest, and a re-take of one to hopefully make it stronger, but I'm down for something even more challenging |

| with my P&S i'm going to have to fall back on 'silly'... which sometimes gets me votes -- just for being different, i guess. or maybe they are sympathy votes for the girl on the short bus. heeheehee |

Too bad I used this for "Red".
(It was taken with a junky Olympus P&S, so there is definitely hope for people without SLRs and 500mm lenses)

| Heh. Don't feel too bad. I'm figuring there's going to be lots of extreme-zoom action..... So I'm going for something different, including an archive shot from my old pos.... errrr.... p&s. |

| Hey, Redwoodcruzr and Elsinore, I'm feeling alot of mediocrity on this one with the shots I do have.... Would a scale model of the lunar lander set into a moon-like diorama be kosher, or are we focusing only on the real-deal? |
