That sure is a big old moon. There is something special about a harvest moon. Wish there were a little more color to it. :)

Still pretty amazing with a 400mm and a teleconverter.

Very good. The full moon is difficult because the light bounces straight back from it and makes it so there isn't much detail. A couple days before or after the full moon makes for more detail because there are a hint of shadows on the craters and ridges. But then the moon isn't fully round like when full. One of the creat catch 22's of moon photography.
