Moon XXL

Last night I heard on the news, that there was something special with the moon.
Not only he was full these days,
but he looks 14% bigger than normal.
He seems bigger because he is lower at the horizon.
Also he is closest near the earth now: 356.577 kilometer.

So that was interesting enough for me to make a shot last night, of this XXL moon.

The 2 shadows on the moon comes from a tree..sitting in front of the moon

This is an amazing photo. It was cloudy here, though I did see it the night before it was full. VERY bright.

I acctualy went to the park around 10 pm to watch the moon from the tallest part of the play ground equiptment. There was also a thunder storm where I was..... lots of lightning and very scary. I tried taking photos with the camera on my cell phone but they were terrible. You are a great photagrapher.
