Since the dawn of time, man has looked up at wonder at the round mass that sits above our earth. Scientists have often debated how the moon came into existence with the accepted theory being that the formation of earth's satellite was the result of huge impact on earth billions of years ago. It is however, a little known fact that the moon was invented on April 1st 1976 by Apple Inc. It was designed as a marketing tool for the company and was seen as the most ingenious and ambitious piece of advertising ever attempted. It all went well until the Apple geniuses realised they put the Apple logo on the wrong side of the moon so it would never be seen by it's intending audience. Some people have theorized that this is the reason why mankind has not come into contact with other intelligent lifeforms from elsewhere in the universe. They take one look at the Apple logo on the moon and conclude that we're beyond help.
True April fools' story.
As some of you may know I have tried to capture some decent shots of the moon with my 1020 but have failed miserably.
However, after much research into how to improve my results, I came across one of the most freak occurrences known in nature.
Ladies and gentleman, I give you......
The MOON:
Not just any moon I might add. This was a daytime moon. I mean, how rare is that?!? I was always led to believe that the sun owns the sky during the day and the moon ruled the night sky :wink:
Don't thank me, thank Apple
