Monday, September 10

After figuring out the zoom feature on my iPhone I was finally able to snap a picture of the moon. In this photograph the moon is around 31.4% illuminated. This picture was taken around 6:15 AM Tuesday (9/11/12) morning in my neighborhood. I walked seventy-five feet in order to find the moon this morning. It is obvious by the moon's illumination that we are approaching a new moon in a number of days. The moon is beginning to appear as it did before the last full moon.

The moon is the crescent in the center of the picture, and not the white blur of light.
