The Moon is blue, or yellow or white.

Occasionally the Moon pokes its face out from some corner and seems to fit right in, almost as if it belongs.

I seem to have collected a few shots with this satellite hanging precariously overhead.

Here's the first.
Got any to share and compare?

So that's where it went!!

Well Tom, you got me hunting. So far just this:



I've always been fascinated by positioning the moon over favorite architecture! We'll have to find more!

Hi Asher,

It's all over the place. Apparently it also was here a week ago when there were no clouds to hide behind:

It was so high in the sky that there was no interesting foreground, so I just concentrated on getting a instrumental recording with an EF 70-200mm f/4 + 2x extender, shown here at actual recorded size.

I've also tried converting the single image into a 3D-anaglyph version for Red-Cyan glasses:


Cheers,

Bart,

It's so impressive how well one can image the moon with just the lowly 70-200 4.0 L and no IS. I guess with a tripod. Your 70-200 2.8 L IS II with the latest 2x could do even better!

Still that's not as amazing as the work of astronomers in eons past who managed to make remarkable progress with much more meager telescopes!!

Looking forward to seeing more images! Unfortunately, we rarely keyword even interesting image with the notion of "moon". I bet everyone has taken snaps of unusual moon v. Landscape or architecture combinations. However, who can find them? I had to catalog one hard drive in Media Pro and, as I expected, I did indeed have moon pics lurking hidden amongst other shoots.

I wish we had moon recognition software, LOL !
