I too will iterate this. The Moon is very, very small, especially in photos. A lot of beginning photographers are disappointed when trying to get picture of it (that included me, a while back). The Moon is about 1/2 - 1/3 the diameter of your thumb when your hand is outstretched. Try it the next time the Moon is up. You'll be shocked.
