Ben,This is a really nice way to spend a morning Bob, both images have aspects that I like.
Alan,I like the wider context in the first image but the details of the moon in the second one are definitely captivating.
Doug,Did it seem to you that there was more clarity in this last full moon than at other times lately, Bob?
The only thing I can figure out is that it was an incredibly clear day. The recent rains must have washed all of the crap out of the atmosphere and it has been very calm lately so no new dust has ben wafted into the atmosphere.Doug,
The answer is yes. The shots at Ward Terrace and this one at Bell Rock seems to me to have greater clarity in the moon. Not sure why maybe the moon is closer to the earth right now or maybe there is no haze in the sky. What is you conclusion? If you blow it up to 100% you can see details in the moon craters that I have not seen before.
