Perigee Moon

Saturday night, January 10th, 2009 the Moon was close to perigee, so this is the biggest and brightest full Moon of 2009 (according to Sky and Telescope @ http://www.skyandtelescope.com/observing/ataglance) Here are a few shots that I liked:
And yes it was rather chilly. The new tripod and wireless remote I received for Christmas came in quite handy!

Werewolves anyone ???

There was a color ring of redish orange around the moon that this captured pretty well.
