Hey Hivers,

@svemirac has made a fantastic post about the Moon here. Besides the pictures that where made from Andrew Mccarthy, he showed also some awesome shots of the Moon he made with his camera. He has also initiated a competition in which we should show our pictures of the moon. For this competition, I want to submit some pictures that I found on my hard disk.
If you also have pictures of the moon on your hard disk, or you have good weather and want to take pictures, then show your pictures.



This was one of the first images I shot when I had bought my Sigma 100-300 f4 zoom lens.

And... Here is a little bit of Moon-related music. Well, the Moon is called in the title, I think this should be enough.
