Here's some artwork in an Andy Warhol style of the four Moon photos I just posted. The artwork is based on Warhol's painting 'Sixteen Jackies' (1964). Zoom in to see each Moon's individual effects!
Moons Sunday 12th, Monday 13th, Tuesday 14th and Wednesday 15th May 2019
Four moons on four successive nights!
Despite being quite light nights, the spot exposure on the camera blacked everything out other than the Moon, and the angle of the light gave some great crater shadows!
Pick a feature of the Moon and see how much it rotates over the four nights!
(12th / 13th / 14th / 15th May)
Time 21:45 / 20:50 / 20:25 / 20:15.
Distance 229,535 / 229,295 / 229,494 / 230,205 miles.
Waxing gibbous / waxing gibbous / waxing gibbous / waxing gibbous phase.
215 / 175 / 155 / 140 degrees SW / S / SE / SE compass point (azimuth).
Altitude 46.3 / 46.1 / 38.1 / 28.0 degrees.

Moon Friday 19th April 2019 - Arty Moon!
I decided to do an arty picture of the Moon with a colourful artwork curve I drew.
First, I pasted in my art curve into Abode Photoshop and gave the colours a bit more vibrance.
Then, I put that in the Moon photo, before cutting out most of the mares (revealing a highly contrasted Moon beneath) and making the visible Moon surface stain-glassed.
Time 21:00.
Distance 228,102 miles.
Full moon phase.
115 degrees NE compass point (azimuth).
Altitude 5.5 degrees.
