Moon over Antarctica

I took this shot Thursday night after our bowling team thoroughly embarrassed ourselves ... I'll have to tell you about the two-lane bowling alley sometime. Don't be deceived by the blue sky. This was taken after 10:30 p.m. The sky looks about the same 24 hours a day. Something I'm going to have to explore ... or maybe one of you can tell me ... is if the moon "looks different" from down here. Just looking at this photo, I would say the moon was waning (and I've not noticed it enough recently to have kept track of the cycle; it's not easy to notice when the sun is shining), but a glance at the charts shows that it is indeed waxing. The "golf ball" on the hill is a satellite receiver. Actually, it is an skin that protects the dish from winds. It can get quite windy here, especially in the winter, I think.
