Perigee
Friday's full moon was also it's closest point to Earth, called the perigee. Since its orbit is not a perfect circle, the moon is not always the same distance from us. With the kids in tow, I was slightly late for the moonrise, but I manages to get this.
You had no idea you would learn so much about astronomy by reading this blog, eh? I still need to study up on astrophotography...
you are so talented!! I knew it would pay off someday to be friends with you my whole life =) HAHA!
We are so impressed by your many talents. Maddie took a picture of the two planets and the moon and yours was WAY better. We love all this astronomy stuff!
Ha! I noticed the nice big moon on my way home from dropping off my salad at the ward party and made Aaron drive out towards the desert to take a picture of it....and it ended up AWFUL! Yours is awesome though!
