I got out and tried but it was way too cloudy and hazy (borderline foggy) here in Indianapolis to get much. Had fun though as did my two daughters.

Tried for moon/landscape in widefield foreground, cloudy.

Still cloudy Sat 5/5 night, however my dog woke me up 3:15am Sunday morning for her potty break, and there was a slight parting of the clouds, took the gear out and captured this just as the clouds were closing in again on Luna....

Love This! Did you get a shot of it coming up at the horizon...or was there too much distortion from the atmosphere?

Thank you
I tried getting a shot when it was coming up over the horizon but there was to much ocean fog, had to wait for it to get higher into the sky.

I didn't even know it was the super moon. I was shooting women's tackle football.
