not perfect, but at least the sky cleared up

Wow. You're using a much better lens than me. I guess F6 at 300mm is pushing it for moon shots - or did you use bounce-flash

Gaaaah! What a wonderful shot! You got the orange glow very nicely. And the stars. Wow. You must be really thrilled with that shot. Talk about the sky 'clearing up'!!

[Alex_B]

love the pano crop
wished I'd stayed out in the cold now, still I got a good full moon shot so that can't be bad

Did it right from the balcony of my flat, so I could always get back in ... had a bottle of red with me.. but forgot to put on my shoes as I realised this morning

Excellent pano shot! :hail:

That's a great idea an I may have to pinch it for one of my crops later tonight when I go through the rest of my digitals!

Oh my! I think it not quite fair that you can take photos like these with a bottle of wine under your belt, when I can't even come close stone sober!

I realised when I woke up that I was using ISO100. If I'd remembered to up the speed to 800 I think I would have got better shots. Oh well, I'll have to wait for the next eclipse.

Wow, I really like this one. The stars in the sky adds a nice touch, very clear also!

I have only a 150 mm lense, and I don't even have a tripod yet, so I couldn't take a picture of the eclipse. August, I suppose!
