This morning.

1. Oh my God - you made this up. I can barely stand it. This just looks unreal.

would you tell me a little bit about where it is, how you took it (just the basics, the rest I would not understand) and if the man in the moon talked to you. I can't believe the landscapes on earth and the moon. I know you are proud of this photo.
I don't think I've seen any with a richer color on the moon, it looks like it leaked all over the mountaintops.

3. I was just as stunned when I saw it last night.

My son took it with his Canon EOS Rebel XSi. He had a zoom lens on it, but since he just left for work, I cannot tell you anything about the lens. He was leaving the house yesterday morning and caught the shot from our driveway at about 7:30.

The mountains are part of the Stansbury Range in Tooele County, Utah.

I must say Mr. Moon looks as grand this morning.

2. I agree with the above poster, it's a nice shot..

And a few details of how you did it would be nice, this forum is a learning tool for many of us and giving the specifics of unusual shots helps others who are trying or would like to try something similar.

6. I'll have my son post his info when he gets home.

7. A few requested details...

Thank you all for the kind comments. I only took the pic, Mother Nature provided the rest. The previous posters are correct. The Camera is canons new 12.2 mpxl DSLR. The lens is the Canon 55mm-250mm EFS. The only additional thing that I added was a Hoya UV Filter to help reduce the morning haze.
