Just asking, Skull nailed it. If you can, do as he suggests with your arm extended and hold your thumb out like painters are portayed (sp) as doing. Don't even make a big deal about it. Do it some night, then eventually you'll see the moon near the horizon or a harvest moon and do it again. You, as I was, will be surprised. Actually, I still am. When it looks big on the horizon, I get my thumb out and think, "it's gonna be way bigger than my thumb" and it isn't. I still re-convince myself of this when ever a harvest moon is to be seen. |
