Moon

[Benno (Ben)]

Hey all, well its been a few weeks now, but finally with some fine weather up here in Newcastle ive been able to get out and get a few snaps.
here are a couple of the moon from last night.
Canon 400D, ISO 100, WB on custom, 75-300mm lens at 300mm, edited in Paint Shop Pro 11 (trying something different).
Ive got the red,blue and green filtered images and the full RGB image.
Enjoy

Hi Benno!

Nice images. You should try cropping the image first so that the moon itself is larger, before resizing to 800px wide. With a 10mp raw frame you should still have a fair amount of detail even when you crop the moon out.

Nice work! and yes it's nice to have some clear skies for a change - shame about the wind and the jetstream.

Tell me about it, just a matter of picking the right time
anyways heres the cropped image
enjoy
