[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 770189, member: 48483"] There is [URL="https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/news/1191/the-moon-illusion-why-does-the-moon-look-so-big-sometimes/"]The Moon Effect[/URL]. But the whole illusion is how in a photograph the moon is the same size at a horizon as it is overhead. But our brains seem to zoom that dang moon to a larger size when looking at it with our eyeballs while it is at the horizon. If you want to capture that look in a photo, you must use a longer telephoto lens. [/QUOTE]
