If you don't have a very fancy camera, but a semi-good camera, do you have suggestions how to photograph the moon?

Good ?! I don't have a fancy camera. Took a pic of the moon a few weeks ago, talk about a tiny speck!

Just try your best. Try a tripod, or catch the moon when it is low in the horizon, rising or setting. Look for it as reflection (sometimes reflections appear bigger). One last hint... look for "moons" in other places. This is a photo hunt that should get your creativity flowing...think outside the box.

Here's a photo that Bryan took of the moon last month when we were at a cemetary taking photos of tombstones. The camera is just a point and shoot. It didn't turn out too bad considering we didn't have a tripod. Don't be afraid to try.
