Perigee Full moon over Stradbroke Island + Disc + Halo
Hi all. Here's a compilation video taken of the Moon rising over North Stradbroke Island viewed from Cleveland Point in Brisbane. EOS 600D, 30mm, 200mm, 85mm.
http://youtu.be/gD-7FA5m4Hg
Later on in the evening I got the scope out and got a full disc shot, and when it clouded over I captured a halo around the Moon on video (Spica and Saturn visible to the left).

Thanks for looking

Tom

Also a "Star Trails" image of the rise, and the setup used.

Great videos too Tom, but I'd suggest setting the playback speed a bit faster - maybe 24fps.
These two seemed quite slow and would've been better sped up imo.

I really like that star trail one, very dramatic. And a bit weird.

Thanks Greg and Tony. Sometimes "Full Moon and Cloudy" isn't that bad
