Strange Attractor

This is a small crater in the Apennines Ridge, it's one of my favorite places to look at.

Trivia question: as the moon orbits the earth, how much variation is there in the boundry of the dark side (i.e., does the terminator see-saw a bit)?

I always love to be reminded of this presence in the sky even when I do not see it. A great shot!!!

Wow. I never really realised just how big some of the craters got... I haven't been taking notice of the moon lately (except for during the eclipse). Creat clarity!

i saw a cool telescope recently which allows you to plug your digital SLR into it to take the shots, although with the lens that you have, that's probably not necessary!

The lunatic is on the grass.
The lunatic is on the grass.
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
Got to keep the loonies on the path.

The lunatic is in the hall.
The lunatics are in my hall.
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more.

And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

The lunatic is in my head.
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'til I'm sane.
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

-"There is no dark side of the moon really.
Matter of fact it's all dark."
