This is the only good shot I got, mainly because I am lazy and it was damn cold outside. You can't just put the camera on 'auto' and expect it to know what it's doing with such a contrasting shot as this. I finally stuck it on manual and greatly reduced the time of the exposure so that the moon wasn't overexposed and blurred from the actual movement of it and us. It's amazing when you can see how the earth has moved over only 20 seconds. I think this was somewhere between 2 and 5 seconds.
