I hope this isn't a dumb question. I've seen photos like this one where the moon is so big. Now when I go taking a photo of the moon it's tiny! Is this just a photoshop piece of work?
Here's a shot of the harvest moon from last month .......
Canon 500mm lens with a 2x converter stacked with a 1.4x converter .... so approximately 1400mm on a Canon 1D Mark III camera body (1.3 crop). This is a full uncropped image

Monster, that could be a photoshoped picture, but most likely not. If uncropped, a focal length of 600mm would get you that, and as long as the foreground trees are far away enough to be within infinity focus, you can make a shot like that too.
Bhowdy, that's amazing! was the moon in eclipse that night?

What aperture were you able to shot that with considering all those converters?

That's a pretty clean shot, is this a long exposure?
