HOW TO PHOTOGRPAH THE MOON BY:

ART WOLFE: Set up on a cool calm day, use whatever lens pleases you and
whatever quality you could afford. Shoot at least 400 rolls of film, placing
the moon in various positions around the frame. Scan all the film in your
computer and adjust color balance, contrast, composition, shape of moon (oval
with frame is nice), tone, gray scale, etc. If none of the shots please you,
delete the moon and cut and paste a nice lake and mountain shot from your
files! 

DAVID MUENCH: Frame moon in one of those spooky lookin' arches in Utah or
Arizona. If possibly have a desert flower in foreground.

JOHN SHAW: Shoot moon very early in morning when it is covered with heavy dew.

TIM FITZHARRIS: Get any old moon picture, scan it (see Art Wolfe) and insert
bird flying by (from your bird files)

ROBERT GLEN KETCHUM: Set up tripod near abandon lunar rover, wait till Earth
set and shoot monotone dust to the left of Neil Armstrongs old Twinkie
wrappers. Title the series "Fat Cat in Lunar Funkadelic Action" or some abtuse
title like that. Sell prints for $500 a piece.
