A supermoon and normal moon comparison
HI all,
Just to put some perspective on the subject,here's a comparison of the Supermoon of June 23 2013 at 358,000 km, with a 'normal' moon taken on 4 th March, 2007 at 403,000km.
In this case, it shows the 'Supermoon' diameter at 11% larger than the 'normal' moon.
I took both images with the same scope,an Intes MN61 with a 6" mirror at F6.
The 2007 image was taken with my 350D,and the 2013 image was taken with my 450D.
Since the cameras have different sized pixels, I adjusted one to match the pixel size of the other.
I hope you enjoy it.
