Now that's a big ole Moon

got this one on the way to work, I think the distortion of the air made it look big, because 10 minutes later it didn't look near that big

Nice shot, I heard the other day that the moon is closer to the earth now than it will be for a while.

Nice photo - the size of the moon looking bigger is however just an illusion. Atmospheric distortion apparently would actually make the moon look smaller or so the boffins say. http://www.howstuffworks.com/question491.htm
