By the light of the silvery moon..



This is probably the best picture of the moon that I'm ever likely to take, so close I could almost reach out and touch it :) Museum of the Moon created by UK artist Luke Jerram was hanging low in the Perth Cultural Centre over the past weekend. 'Measuring seven metres in diameter, the moon features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface. At an approximate scale of 1:500,000, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 5km of the moon's surface'. Would have looked pretty cool after dark, unfortunately we couldn't stop for that but have a look to see some amazing images of Museum of the Moon here.. spectacular! Happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe..

  1. ...fabulous, I rarely take pictures of the moon, they just don't turn out well.

  2. Oh my gosh, that first photo is jaw-dropping. And, the photos on that link are equally jaw-dropping. What fantastic place. I wish I was there to see it in person. The photo opportunities are endless.

  6. One: My heart nearly stopped beating!
    My Dad would´ve looooved this! Oh, do I miss him, so sad he cannot see this! Can you believe he met Ingo before I did? Ingo wanted to see the moon and my Dad had the stuff to do (a Celestron).
    Second!
    I just read your comment on my blog when Ingo came in. I said, "Pat paints?" and Ingo went, "sure, he showed me his work, awesome." As if... you know, "hand me the paper, nothing fancy going on around here..."!!!

    I think P would be bored with me pretty quickly, maybe I should rather help you gardening (not that I am good at THAT!)

    Hey, do we know each other at all ;-) Churro!!!

    Oh. Can you please take some more pics? This is a truly fancy project! And the 3D Moon-book is right behind me on the billiard table, too!
