my fruitless attempt to "capture" that Perigee moon

(i have more shots, but its embarrassing) it's too bright.
an article about this rare sight.

‘super perigee moon’ will not cause a natural disaster, says NASA



While tonight's 'super perigee' moon — the largest to appear in nearly 20 years — promises to be historic, NASA says the celestial event brings no danger to Earth.
Do not worry: Tonight’s supermoon, which will appear larger than any moon in the North American night sky since 1992, will not cause any natural disasters, NASA reassured everyone today. They’ve even go so far as to produce a YouTube video to explain the super moon’s effects.
NASA predicts the ‘super perigee moon’ will appear 15 to 30 percent larger than normal. Optimal viewing time, experts say, is just after sunset, when the glowing orb hangs just above the horizon, creating an optical illusion that makes its size appear even greater (an effect known as the “moon illusion”).
The moon, which measures a constant 3,474 kilometers across, isn’t actually changing size. Instead, the moon appears so large because it is at the “perigee” point in its orbit around earth, the closest point in the orbit’s ellipses.
The moon became perigee at roughly 3pm EST today, at which point the moon was a mere 221,565 miles from our planet, about 31,000 miles closer than its furthest distance, know as “apogee.” In addition, the moon became officially a full moon just an hour before hitting becoming perigee — a rare event that creates a stunning visual.
“The full Moon of March 19th occurs less than one hour away from perigee,” says Geoff Chester of the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C, “a near-perfect coincidence that happens only every 18 years or so.”
While the close proximity off the moon does increase the its gravitational effects on the oceans to bring about “perigeean tides,” or tides that have a greater range between high and low, the changes are relatively small  — about 6 inches more than normal.
So grab your cameras, or binoculars, get outside, and enjoy this magnificent heavenly event — it will be quite some time before you’ll see it again.

adjusted.

caught the Adjustment Bureau last night.
matt damon & EMILY BLUNT!
*i kinda like her bag here.

im glad to see Emily sort of in the lead in this movie. cos she always gets supporting roles.

and i would hope to see her in another dance movie if there is one. i mean, a movie with a dance scene.
its the most beautiful thing when she dances in them movie, like OMG, she. can. ballet.

she ballet-ed the sh*t out of the routine. i loved it alot. ALOT.


another cheesy/corny but sweet scene was towards the end, where they both ran and ended up at a "dead" end. with the adjusters all surrounding them, they've got nowhere to go.

emily's character, Elise, said: "I love you"
and they both kissed like there's no tomorrow.
the camera revolves around them and after one round as their lips parted,
they looked around, the adjusters were gone.
and one of them suddenly appears and tells them that their fate/life/whatever was being REWRITTEN.

and the movie ended with them walking down the street in slow-mo.

hope i didnt spoil it for those who have not watched it and intended to go watch. i didnt tell it as it is anyway.
these two makes the phrase "no pain no gain" seems too easy.
it makes you believe in fate.
and chance.

they might seemed like the same but they're different.
if you're willing to wait, the thing/one will come to you.
