4/10 Moon is rising

We were up in the Speedway stadium with the dogs yesterday evening. Showed Gunilla what settings to use for moon photography. And found this shot on the memorycard. Nice big cheese of a moon. and it wasnīt even dark yet... The pic is cropped to actual pixels. Only had my 18-200 mm lens on the camera. Focal length was set on 170 mm, you donīt get full sharpness on higher than that on this lens...
I was planning to take some more shots with the 70-200 lens on a tripod + TC-17 teleconverter. But itīs cloudy tonight. And Iīm running a fever so I donīt feel like freezing my ass off out in the woods...

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6g IF-ED AF-S DX VR
1/125 sec, f/5,6 ISO 200 manual mode and handheld.Focal length was 170mm full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
