That's not just a full moon, it's a 'supermoon' - Technology & science - Space - Space.com - msnbc.com (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/47235294/ns/technology_and_science-space/#.T6G9JI7gypZ)

Senna, wanna lend me 400mm + tele? =D, meetup?

[Senna4ever]

^^^ Hmmmm.....That can be arranged....where?

[gars]

Can I join up as well? my 70-200 + 1.4x just doesn't cut it....

[m3thods]

Hmm any good high vantage points to catch it? I hope it's clear out :okay:

[J89]

lets see what my 200 can do on Saturday.

[european]

Neat!!

[LiquidTurbo]

Hmm, according to weather, seems like weather isn't going to be good.. Darn. But, if on the slight chance the weather betters up, anyone interested in meetup? Senna any suggestions?

[Senna4ever]

- Cypress Mtn lookout
- Cambie Bridge if you want buildings in the foreground
- Stanley Park
- QE Park

[LiquidTurbo]

QE Park?

[Senna4ever]

QE Park?

Good vantage point, as in no power lines.

[pintoBC_3sgte]

nice! I'll have to try and remember this. supposed to be a clear night here :)

[Senna4ever]

Another potentially nice place will be that pier at the end of Kerr St by Marine Drive.

I am leaning towards going to the first lookout at Cypress. According to my software, the Moon should be very close to Mt. Baker so if it's a clear night tomorrow, there be good shootin'!

[sunny_j]

i wouldn't mind going to the first lookout at cypress if you guys do decide to meet up

[LiquidTurbo]

I'm totally down for this shiet. Ramen first? LOL

[smaggs]

Thanks for the heads up. Might head up to Cypress myself!

[Senna4ever]

I'm totally down for this shiet. Ramen first? LOL

How about we meet in front of the Benkei on Robson St, cross from the Safeway near Denman around 7:00? Then we can go up to Cypress?

[LiquidTurbo]

^ I'm down for this.

1. LiquidTurbo

[sunny_j]

I've never tied ramen... what time do you guys think you will done eating? that way we can drive up there at the same time.

Probably 8:00 - 8:15-ish?

Of course, if it's raining, or cloudy then there's no point. :(

[sunny_j]

sounds good.
according to the weather network its suppose to be foggy tonight.

[smaggs]

I'll be at work till later in the evening, but come grab me if you guys see me come up...will be in a 1.6EL with white wheels and exhaust

[LiquidTurbo]

If its overcast.. then yea, but its a little cloud, if you're patient, it may move away from the moon. I'll just keep my eyes pealed on this thread today.

[Senna4ever]

Foggy might be good...usually means clear skies at higher elevations.

[Senna4ever]

For those of you that have iPhones, download an app called "Skytracker" by Global News. It will overlay rain and cloud cover info on a map and also give you the weather forecast. I think it's updated hourly.

[smaggs]

^ also on android!

[sunny_j]

should i bring my 5d mkii or 60d tonight? i can't bring both out. the longest lens i have is the 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6.

[Senna4ever]

60D: you will get the 1.6x crop factor.

[sunny_j]

60D: you will get the 1.6x crop factor.

thats what i was learning towards

[J89]

Hmm cypress..damn so far.
Happy shooting tonight guys, I can't think of a place tonight -_-

[LiquidTurbo]

Senna, can't make 7pm. 8pm?

[Senna4ever]

The moon rises at 8:30-ish, and optimum viewing would be after 9pm, so 8 is fine with me. Is it cloudy in Vancouver now? I'm in Mission and it's sunny here right now.

[sunny_j]

the clouds are rolling in. there is thick clouds east of knight street and almost clear west of knight street.

[Senna4ever]

So it must be clearing up then?

[sunny_j]

i hope so, it looks like its getting more cloudy then clearing up...

[LiquidTurbo]

K I'm gonna be at Benkei at 8. Hope to see some of you guys

[Senna4ever]

Just getting into Vancouver now...looks like the clouds are moving east! I see clear skies to the west!

Liquid, have we met before? I'll be in front of Benkei with a D4 in my hands.

[Senna4ever]

I'm a little late....I'll be there around 8:10

[LiquidTurbo]

I'm inside. Look for a table with d700

[yray]

I will probably head to 3rd pier at 9:20sh, moon rise is that time. See me with a D3100. :lawl:

[Senna4ever]

Where's that?

[N.V.M.]

i'm already on the side of a mountain, so i'm on the deck having a Stella or two.

[yray]
