uh, why not?

**jacobsen1** · 11-12-2008 10:24 PM

seriously, I just pointed you in the right direction, it's your shot 100%.

these, however, are mine!

now that i figured out how to do a moon shot, i am hooked! its nice to get good results

**jacobsen1** · 11-15-2008 09:12 AM

Nice Dan!

maybe it just me, but IMHO crop less so it's a tad sharper.

(why I rarely show anything cropped that tight)

**Micah / AF1 Racing** · 11-18-2008 12:11 AM

I just ordered a 150-500mm lens for the Sigma SD14....maybe it will get here in time, maybe...

**tardypizza** · 12-01-2008 08:40 PM

From tonight's conjunction, 100% crop:

I am still trying to learn ISO, App, shutter while messing with white balance and not vigneting (?) or trying not to.

So far I suck.

With UV filter not good so I removed it,

without

Still experimenting,

I was experimenting by adjusting certian aspects for example ISO to the max for one shot and then the minimum the next to try and get a feel of what was happening.

I'm trying to learn. I still have a lot of work to do in order to understand light and its effects.

I was using a 24-70 f2.8 lens on my D50, and it was dark minus some house lights.

**Micah / AF1 Racing** · 01-09-2009 09:45 AM

Trying out my new IS 150-500 Sigma.

This was from a good tripod, with remote used, in my yard with image stabilization on too, even though I doubt it needed under those conditions.

**layla** · 01-09-2009 10:16 AM

Very nice Micah. You've really come a long way in learning the sigma. And glad to see you're posting!

**jacobsen1** · 01-09-2009 10:58 AM

damn, is that cropped, or the full montey?

**Micah / AF1 Racing** · 01-11-2009 02:49 AM

Cropped, not a lot but maybe a 25% crop. I was pretty impressed with that lens, even on the SD14. P&P was minimal, only un-sharp mask and white balance correction.

**Juanita** · 02-09-2009 05:26 PM

Friday's moon...

**layla** · 02-10-2009 02:13 PM

Nice Marisa. Much improved from your previous attempt.

**Stray Cat** · 02-11-2009 01:10 PM

Almost 100% crop. Need to reshoot with a better exposure. Hasn't been a clear sky in Texas for a couple days.

**Juanita** · 02-11-2009 01:17 PM

Wow, that's great!!!

**PhatheadWRX** · 02-11-2009 07:38 PM

**Juanita** · 02-12-2009 09:03 AM

Looks nice, French!!

**ppower** · 02-12-2009 05:01 PM

It's almost a full moon so I thought I'd give a test shot last night. Shot @ 200mm. I sure am liking the idea of that Sigma 500mm.

**PhatheadWRX** · 02-12-2009 05:50 PM

The new Canon 70-300 looks pretty good:

**PhatheadWRX** · 03-08-2009 07:20 PM

here's a day moon

**Warus** · 05-05-2009 03:43 AM

**Juanita** · 06-04-2009 09:51 AM

Technically, the moon is in the shot...

**Stefan** · 06-08-2009 03:41 PM

**Blazin** · 07-05-2009 02:02 PM

be kind

**justinridesabike** · 07-21-2009 08:28 PM

Bit soft, it's a composite. 55mm isn't very long haha.

**sixdaemonbag** · 08-06-2009 01:07 PM

Shot 7/31 with my d50/sigma 400/f5.6 800 iso 1/80th f22

**BlueCamel** · 08-09-2009 12:19 AM

First attempt. As a newbie this lesson gave me some practical experience to
dry reading. Thanks for that!. Still, I think I could do better... maybe Monday
as it's supposed to be a clear night.

D40 18-200 VR; F10; 1/200; 200 ISO; 100% crop

**dcargile** · 08-13-2009 05:23 PM

That thing in the lower left that looks like a pipe cleaner is the Liberty Memorial tower in Kansas City. The little white dot in the upper right is, in fact, the moon.

**tardypizza** · 08-13-2009 05:25 PM

if you hadn't said anything I would have assumed it was a saguaro

**PhatheadWRX** · 08-13-2009 05:41 PM

so are we going to run this one past 9/19/09?

**PatGlennon** · 08-27-2009 02:37 AM

**ppower** · 09-16-2009 04:39 PM

I just found some good moon tips and thought I'd put them up here:

**nukaidee** · 10-01-2009 10:41 PM

THE MOON IS THE FULLEST AND ROUNDEST AND BIGGEST in the whollle year =)

shoot shoot shoot!

**tardypizza** · 10-02-2009 10:52 AM

**tardypizza** · 10-08-2009 03:19 PM

Nasa is bombing the moon tonight. I haven't had the telescope out in years, I just may do this.

**tardypizza** · 10-09-2009 02:59 PM

It was raining dogs and cats here this morning, didn't bother with the telescope. Doesn't sound like I missed anything anyway.
