Your photo looks like a poster for Twilight, spindrift.

Deyana - soon the moon will be 'decroissant' (see page one)....so please get ready to take some pics of it in this phase. I'll do the same and we can compare.

I'll try spinny, but my camera is not very good, or I haven't learnt how to set it properly. I'll have a go though :)
Posted by spindrift on Sept 10, 2009, 12:31pm
Let's wait several nights until the moon is more decroissant ;)
Posted by deyana on Sept 10, 2009, 12:58pm
Sure, sounds good. :)

It's an experiment. I've always wondered whether people on the other side of the globe see the moon in their location as I see it in mine. Whilst in the Seychelles or Kenya I've fancied that the moon seemed the 'other way round'....

So we'll see then. It doesn't matter about whether the camera is good or not! Thanks.

Spindrift, my camera is not only 'not' good, but it's crap! At least that's the way I've been feeling about it recently. But I will take the pics, just tell me when and where and what of. :D

Deyana - I bet you think I've forgotten about photographing the crescent moon - BUT either it's not showing in the sky these days or it's cloudy :-[

Cloudy for the next few days here apparently.
Posted by deyana on Oct 26, 2009, 2:12pm
What?! Don't tell me, I'll be the only one taking photos of the moon tonight?

I'll do it anyway. Where's spindrift?

Yes, I know the photos are crap!
Posted by deyana on Oct 26, 2009, 6:57pm
No, no they are good, K. Just the kind of quality that I usually post. ;D

Now I won't feel embarrassed about the moon picture I'm going to post later on..
Posted by bixaorellana on Oct 26, 2009, 8:04pm
They're art shots, Kerouac! The palms really make them look Egyptian, too.
Posted by deyana on Oct 26, 2009, 9:52pm
Just took these a couple of mins ago. It is a lovely crescent moon out there this evening. Don't know you can make that out or not in these two pics:

It's dark where you are, Deyana??! It's 4 in the afternoon here, and very sunny.

Bixa, it had just turned dark when I took that picture, now it's really dark outside, pitch black.

Wow, imec, that's amazing, did you just take that one?
Posted by imec on Oct 26, 2009, 10:56pm
Thanks. Yep, about an hour ago.
