On Monday you were going to see what is referred to as a supermoon and I want to talk about that and I want to talk about photographing the moon as well.

I don't know if this is something you guys are planning on doing or not, but I think it's going to be quite interesting.

So this is according to space.com

and they mentioned that on Monday, November 14th,

at 6.15 a.m. Eastern Standard time,

the moon will arrive at its closest point to the Earth in 2016.

This will be a distance of 221,520 miles away. This

distance, which is measured from the center of the Earth to the center of the Moon,

is within 85 miles of the Moon's closest possible approach to Earth to be sure this is an extreme pergy.

And so what this means is if you've ever photographed the moon and you know kind of what the

optical illusion that the moon does is

when it's near the horizon it's going to look really big and this is going to be a

super moon so this is extremely big and I think it's also important and worth

noting on here and they talk about this,

when the moon appears near the horizon when it is rising.

And so this will be just before 5 PM on November 14th.

That's when the famous moon illusion will kick in in which makes our natural satellite appear

exceptionally large. However that illusion happens frequently when the full moon

skims the horizon. The super moon that shines down on us later on November 14th

really won't look that much different from other

full moons. So we'll talk about the whole what is a super moon and how does that fit in

in a second but in general when you're photographing the moon
