Full moon tonight, and I wanted to practice for the shuttle launch tomorrow night.

Had to play with the camera color settings a bit to get this one.

This is what it looked like with no color change.

The midnight sun.

Can I ask how taking photos of the moon offers practice for a shuttle launch?
Hardly seems comparable

How well can you see it from Ocala? I hope you get some pictures, I'll be sitting here waiting. Mark

Very well, especially a night launch.
