Did you get a chance to look at the rising “super moon”?  From what I’ve seen, it’s definitely living up to its expectation.  Take a look at this NASA image, shot as the moon was rising beside the Lincoln Memorial:<\/p>

These images are courtesy of their author, Harry Mason.  That gorgeous full moon shot was taken 03\/19\/11 at 12:51am, and the earlier full moon used to show the difference in sizes was taken 01\/18\/11 at about 6pm.  Both shots were taken with Harry’s hand-held Cannon SX200IS.  I spent a lot of time on Harry’s website<\/a>, looking at the world through his eyes.  I’d recommend the trip.<\/p>

Thanks for letting me use the images, Harry.  I’m seriously impressed, and looking forward to your future work.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
