Details:
Images of the moon taken low on the horizon and later on in the evening. You can clearly see the distortion caused by atmospheric refraction. The amount of atmospheric refraction is a function of the temperature gradient, the temperature, pressure, and humidity and the amount of water vapor present. All the images were taken with an ES ED80 and a Nikon D3100.
