Nice.
Next on the list............Teleconverter.
I WILL have the equipment to at least keep up with Gipson.
I may not EVER surpass him..........but I AM going to try to keep up.

Simply amazing. What kind of flash did you use? Just kidding...

Ok.. you got to tell me more about this.

I think part of the fun of catching a daylight moon shot is to have it look as if it were taken during the daylight.

Clicky

I have several different exposures.. it just that with a blue sky, the moon is obviously overexposed...

Or even more over exposed....

Just a moon shot.. with the (200x1.5)x2 setup!

Sooo Wrong. Exif?

sure.. no problem! Uncompressed.. Exif intact!

In case you are wondering... I have a DX body.. so 200mm x 1.5 for the DX view correction.. plus the 2X for the teleconverter.... I am calculating it around 600mm actual....

I liked the one with the sky more, you've got good detail. Perhaps a small radius highpass filter plus a bit of contrast would help sharpen it up a bit and bring out the surface texture?

 

[cgipson1]

maybe.. these are actually 2 and 3 frame HDR... with sharpening in Photomatix 4.. I am almost afraid to do much more.... got some weird artifacting on the two blue sky shots...

I don't know much about photomatix, but a small amount of HP on your low rez jpeg didn't hurt, mask out any artifacts against the blue sky and you should be fine. Just keep the radius low, just enough to bring out the surface texture, place on overlay or soft light mode and decrease opacity.

Also try adjusting contrast by using channel mixer on luminance-mode. I got some pretty detailed results if it weren't for JPEG artifacts.

Post it. bro! You obviously know photoshop a lot better than I do!

I can't get the edits to show up in a JPEG due to compression. Perhaps you're having the same problem?
