Last night's moon was at my favorite phase. There was a thin cloud cover, and this affected the seeing conditions very much and produced a glow around the lunar disk.
I took some footage just the same so I can practice aperture control and long lens handling with the 5D2. The thin clouds somehow made the footage a bit more interesting than one taken at a clear night, as the latter would appear as a panned still photo.
