7. Thank you. I got back from work and hastily took a shot while holding the camera against the side of the house.

My camera is outdated. It is a meager Nikon L100, I have no tripod or other stabilizing equipment.

My thing for years has been to snap photos of the moon just for the fun of it.

As for astrology, I do not believe in it. But I do like the concept of certain aspects of the astronomy of the solar system. I think that retrogrades of planets are mildly interesting.

Keep up the great work with the sharp photos, and enjoy the holidays!

Your fellow lunar enthusiast from the other side of The Commonwealth.
