The 98% full moon (the 100% full moon is at 04:38 PDT on July 3rd, about 28 hours from now) was rising over the house tonight while I was out for a brief walkabout.
The iPhone sees that everything’s getting dark in the dusk and exposes the image appropriately, which leaves the Moon horribly over exposed.
But you can manually override the iPhone’s automatic settings and see detail on the Moon! But you won’t see much of the house and flag and trees.
There seems to be a LOT of things in life that are like that, which is a real pain in the ass when you really, REALLY want BOTH!
(And if you see a really nice professional photograph that shows both in this particular instance? I’ll about 99.99999999% guarantee that it’s two pictures photoshopped together.)
