Thanks Bob, but considering how often I've taken just this shot, I sort of 
agree with Shel.  The moon is the moon is the moon, and I've shot it enough 
times to know what it looks like, regardless of the fact that it was at its 
perigee when I shot it the other night.  I'm not actually sure why I posted 
that pic here, aside from it being a very current event.

What I really want to do is get a 2x teleconverter behind my 500mm and see 
how much detail I can get.  This will sound silly, but I've always dreamt of 
seeing one of the Apollo landing sites.  Yes, I do realize I'd probably need 
a very powerful telescope to see them.

Speaking of teleconverters, does anyone know what, exactly, the advantage 
would be in using the longer telecons (the ones made for telephoto lenses 
only) instead of the more compact ones (made for use with any lens)?

Thanks,
John Celio
