Non-super moon
I've enjoyed everyone else's super moon shots.

Due to my failure to research optimum settings for shooting the moon, I got ZERO pics of the hyped super moon. I ventured out to Arches, and there were tons of other photogs there. In fact, when I left and drove by Balanced Rock, I could see an entire row of glowing LCD screens in the parking lot, all lined up shooting Balanced Rock in silhouette of the moonglow. Pretty cool.

Shortly before the moon appeared at my location, I turned around to see a group of photogs in silhouette next to Turret Arch and snapped off a shot with my new Canon S100. It's actually my favorite shot of the whole night, despite the fact the super moon is conspicuously absent :razz:

Hey, Angela! I was the 12th LCD from the left as you drove by! :wavey:
Fun picture with great glow!

Beautiful capture Angela! Love the inclusion of the people on the right. I would remove whatever that is on the left.

Nice job Angela. It took me a minute to see the photographers but once you notice them they really make the photo.
