I was outside a supermarket at 6pm, the moon was just rising above the
treetops. I used a 90mm lens to get a rather hopeless picture but the
moon did look bigger on the horizon. I can't remember if this is a true
optical effect or simply an illusion.

Maybe if I reverse my enlarger lens I can make a decent enlargement.. ;_)
