presents such dramatic parallax at 800 km camera locations, then you could regularly get parallax demonstrating photos by contacting out of state friends and arranging to image the moon at the same time.

Folks that have been on the list a long time might remember that I did just that a few years ago with list member Rob on Maui.

We coordinated efforts and shot images of the Moon both here and there at the exact time time.

I could have sworn I'd posted the images on the SLAS Gallery but I just checked and saw they were not there. But I did find them on my server. Have a look.

And here with both sets together. http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/stereo/uhhu.jpg

Now that it's clouded over, I may just finally get around to posting them to the SLAS Gallery.

Clear skies,
