Saturday night's full moon will be the largest in 18 years. The full moon coincides with perigee this month which creates a moon 14 percent larger than when it is at its furthest from Earth. That adds up to a great moonrise Saturday night, weather permitting.
If you plan on being outside with your camera you should try using The Photographer's Ephemeris and find a good vantage point for a fantastic picture. Its filled with the most information anyone could ask for. I suggest reading the tutorial to get the basics figured out. If you're adventurous and need to know if a sunrise will happen directly over a landmark, this tool is for you.
