A note on the Lunar Day. ←This link now points to a note on the meaning of the word "day".
I've divided this page into nine parts. 1, a page containing my most-recent images. 2, a page, itself divided into four, showing close-up pictures of craters and other features at varying scales. 3, a page showing the phase of the Moon for each day of a lunar cycle. From here you can see some large mosaic pictures. 4, a page illustrating how the Moon may be imaged in the day time. 5, a page of pictures taken at Full Moon. 6, a set of images of the Apollo landing sites where men have landed on the Moon. 7, I discuss, briefly, the libration of the Moon. 8, I show some pictures of earthshine. Finally, if you click on the little animation above you can see a brief discussion of the Earth-Moon system (but be aware, it loads a 428K file).
| My Latest Pictures | This page shows you my most-recent pictures. They may appear here before they become available through my close-up pages, but they will be transferred there eventually (except for pictures of the Apollo landing sites which will appear on my Apollo page). | |
Close-up pictures of craters and other features. The first page is an index to a large collection of images. | |
The Moon on each of 28 days of a lunar cycle. |
| The Moon in Daylight | On this page I illustrate that the Moon may be imaged quite successfully in broad daylight, and describe how I go about it. | |
I took a number of pictures at full Moon, some in exaggerated colour. | |

Here I discuss the libration of the Moon. The page loads a 547K demonstration. |
