the moon

i can't really get to sleep tonight so i figure i'd play with my friend's zoom lens i'm borrowing for the week. full moon's out tonight, and since i recently watched a discovery channel documentary on the missions to the moon, i figure what the heck. with a 1.6x crop factor, i'm getting an equivalent of a 320mm reach at the long end, which isn't nearly as long as it should be, but for a blog posting should be good 'nuff. i really ought to just fashion myself an extension ring, but that's too much work... even for an insomniac...
