I have calculated what the moonlight illumination levels will be for the full moon in November. These are posted on a new page at the LunarLight Photography web site. The predictions are in terms of Light Values, or what a light meter would read off of an 18% gray card set facing the moon. Light Value equals Exposure Value with ISO 100 film. The predictions are for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.
Also, the moon will rise on Saturday just as the sun sets, seeing as the point of true "full" lunar phase is right around that time. This will result in one of those rare "Red Moons" that make such wonderful photographic subjects.
Have at 'em, and good hunting!
