It is a protected critter here in Germany...wish I was back in the States where you can shoot almost anything that moves.

I love the News about the two Native American tribes sharing a single reservation squabbling over the rights to shoot Bald Eagles...can't wait until they start shooting at each other over this "right"????

It was cloudy as it came over the horizon, took a few shots later but am not sure how good they turned out.

What's special about it? There's a Full Moon every month (and shouldn't it get a "bad lighting" rejection - "Please do not submit Full Moons lit with on camera flash or with the light directly behind the camera. See the Shutterbuzz lighting tutorial....")

At some times, the moon is closer to earth hence its bigger appearance, thus you can shoot closer close ups of the moon's surface. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermoon

Ah, OK, thanks. 12% larger. Isn't that just the difference between using an 18MP sensor and a 20MP one?

Protected by whom? The German government? If so, tell them there is still some debris left on the moon that needs to be cleaned up.

Looks like we're having some clouds/heavy haze, too, and I don't really have a good place to shoot it, no clear view.

I took a pic last night - it is noticeably bigger than the one I took in Jan, but a teleconverter or bigger lens would make more of a difference.

I actually prefer the look of the moon before and after the full moon when it has at least a bit of side-lighting too.
