Wow, those are great. I have been trying to shoot the moon but my camera is not good enough for photos like yours! Great job!

I really like the first here!!!
That full moon seems to have been a SPECIAL full moon (which totally hid behind a dense cloud cover here), everyone seems to have tried their hands on this moon ... "harvest moon" (don't know what that really means), close-ups and other takes... and here I like the pink sky and the moon against it with the naked bush giving the frame some balance on the other side.

Is it a speciality of EVERY year's October full moon then?
For I remember I saw the moon this big (and in similar colours) last year on 16 October in Hamburg (and took its pic).

Lafoto, don't know, it just looked really big to me and in the right light so I shot it.
