By The Light Of The Moon

I've been wanting to take some full moon photos for several months, but it's been either overcast and you can't see the moon, the full moon happens on a night when we're not at home, or it's been sub-zero, and I'm afraid to take my camera outside for fear it's insides will freeze or condensation will form after going back into the house. Either that, I just plain forget and miss the boat.

But this week there was a full moon combined with mild temperatures, so I was able to take a few shots. Here's a "Right From The Camera" shot (although I did crop it since I only have a 300mm zoom):

I think this is my favorite. The changes make the moon look like a marble in the sky.
