Now, it makes me want to consider getting a telephoto lens. Only got a wide angle and standard prime lens

You have to take the moon when it just rises or near sunset as that's the closest the moon will be to earth.

Found a set on flickr.

"http://www.flickr.com/photos/jinxsi/sets/72157626301995998/with/5540282515"

A pic I found. There's actually tons, just do a search.

It really isn't - it's just an illusion - but it's also the worst time to take a clear shot, because the Moon's light has to pass though more turbulent atmosphere. The best time to take a photo (for clarity) is when the Moon is directly south. This will be about 1:30am tonight.

True. Too bad Vancouver doesn't have any cool buildings to use as a foreground.

The Moon is bright though - usually shutter speeds are about 125/sec @ 200 ISO, but tonight I was using 500/sec.

I'll be home soon... Everyone and their dog has to stop and see what I'm looking at. I should have gone somewhere less public.

anyone have good suggestions for personal gear in cold and/or wet weather?

looking for beanies and especially gloves. i saw some that have grip-like material for dexterity (that eventually falls off), and some that can expose your thumb and index finger (all weird design/colors; none in plain black).

TIA

^Oldschool Canon TV 50mm f0.95 is still going on eBay for almost 3k USD.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Canon-50mm-F-0-9...#ht_3758wt_907



Cheapest alternative for 50mm 0.95 noctilust would be the lesser Noktor 50mm f0.95 for µ4/3rds.
http://noktor.com/products.php


I want one just for the hell of it. Lol.

The Noktor is not a replacement for any of the other f0.95 lenses. It's more like a Holga lens. The Voightlander 50mm f1.1 Nokton is an ideal substitute, but that Leica is such a sweet lens...totally worth $11,000 if you can swing it.

They've also introduced a 25mm f0.95 for µ4/3 cameras.
