I need a photograph of the moon taken from somewhere in New Zealand for an astronomy project which will be published. The location within New Zealand is not important as long as you tell me what city or town it was taken from. The timing is very important; I need two photographs of the moon taken during the same minute from more than a few thousand miles apart. The purpose is to compare the slightly different views of the moon and calculate the angle between each photographers line of sight to the moon. This information will be used for further astronomical studies which I'm pretty sure have never been done before.
The other photograph will be taken from Lake Havasu City in the Southwest USA.
We will probably have to be in communication about the timing; I have to coordinate with the photographer in Arizona to make sure you're both ready, the lunar cycle, and the weather could also complicate things. It might take a few tries so I will want someone who can be flexible.
I've included an example so you can see the level of resolution required to determine the different angles between the photographs. I'll need that same level of resolution. If you can go higher that is fine but not necessary.
Since I'm publishing the photograph I will require all legal rights to the photograph. If you want I can give you credit. Also please include some kind of proof of the timing and location of the photograph. Timing/GPS data encoded in the photograph or a written/emailed statement is fine.
I am offering $50.00 USD.
I have captured the photo of moon through telescopic lens. You can see surface of moon very clearly as photo is with very good resolution. I can give you the rights and prefer name credit.
