The Moon (2)

This gallery displays photos of the moon, or scenic pictures including the moon as an obvious element. These pictures were made in northwest Montana and show the moon in various phases and during eclipse. We do not have a telescope; these pictures were taken with one of our Canon EOS lenses. See our Gear page for equipment details.
