The moon this evening is rather nice.

That's a great picture. I love to look at the moon.

WOW!! Cool shot there Kraig

 

[kmcconaughey]

Thanks. It's a little blurry but at 30x zoom and hand held it didn't turn out too bad. I should have grabbed a tripod but was too lazy.

Nice moon shot Kraig.

 

[kmcconaughey]

Brian, thanks.

OK, here's 3 better photos of the moon I took a short while ago. I used a mono-pod this time to steady the camera. I had to wait between shots for clouds to pass by. (note, I also didn't reduce the size of the photos as much as the one I posted at the bottom of the page. That's why they are bigger, not due to more lens zoom.)

For comparison, here's a photo of the moon with no zoom. The other photos below were with 30x optical zoom.

I don't see anything?

Good shot, kraig!

 

[kmcconaughey]

Craig, thanks.

Shultzie, on my monitor it looked brighter. I brightened it up for you.

 

[kshultz]

OH, now I see it.
Wow zoom is much better!
This is all I can do with my cheapy iphone.

 

[kmcconaughey]

Shultzie, yes but you have the really nice fire pit in your photo.

All, Pictures are really nice. And to think there has only been 12 people walk up there too - kind of humbling. I love taking pics also but just have gotten out of the habit.

[fcurrier]

Did I miss something? WHAT left the Cubs alone, WHERE?

 

[jbaker]

Frank that was taken from a helicopter after the Washington, Ill tornados a couple of weeks back. There was more to the photo but I cut it out due to people in picture.

 

[nbextermueller]

If I had to guess, I would say that the recent tornados left those cubbies mostly intact. It even appears that Mother Nature was interested in what's under the hood.
