Practise Moon shot 30-07-07

[UniPol]

I'm a bit rusty but managed to take a reasonable image this evening of near full moon at prime focus with my Tak SKY-90/400D/Porta mount. I should have used a filter but was just too lazy, it is pretty cold up in the mountains tonight and the warm fire was beckoning me to come inside, what can you say :D

That's excellent Steve, a very nice shot. The equipment you use is perfect for a full disc shot.

Perhaps a tad overexposed around Tycho - make sure you check the histogram with your 400D after the shot, or shoot it in RAW and use post-processing to reduce the exposure if you accidently overexpose (slightly).

Very nice result!
