And Lo, the Moon shall be Wicked Cool

It is a Sign ... A SIGN!


A sign of what? I don't know. So it's not a very effective sign. But it is a Sign nonetheless!

How did you manage to take such a cool picture! I've tried to take similar pictures but either my camera is crap or I'm doing something wrong because I never get anything good.

I've got a pretty good camera (this is my fancy one, not the one I haul around in my pocket in case I see something amusing). I balanced it on the railing of my balcony (with the strap around my wrist in case of gravity) and put a box of mechanical pencil lead under the sticky-out lens bit to get the right angle, and zoomed in all the way. There were a few very blurry attempts before I got this one ... I'm not quite sure what I did differently to get it to stay still but something worked just right.

Digital cameras are the best thing that ever happened to my photography skills. Not only is there no viewfinder offset, which always messed up what little composition skills I had, but you can take hundreds and hundreds of pictures without having to pay for the film or developing, and you can see the results immediately so you know what to fix.
