Hi Shane.
You have to be a member of MMSAATU to see your link. Use the "manage attachments" button when you make a post to browse to the jpeg image on your computer.
Regarding the picture - so this was taken with the camera on a tripod with a normal 300mm lens? To get a bigger scale you will need to crop out the moon from the centre of the image. It looks like you took the original photo and just resized it to 640x480, so the moon will be small in the middle.
If you crop the moon and then resize to 800x600 or so, the moon itself will be bigger in the frame. However at 300mm focal length, it's only going to appear so big.
Do you have a telescope? You'll be surprised at the results you can get if you just point the camera into the eyepiece and start snapping away. The moon will fill the frame then, and you'll get a much bigger image of it with more detail.
Once we see a bigger picture, we can work on the other details like exposure etc.
Good luck and welcome to IIS!
