    Post your Moon Shots

    A long time passed after this topic, and I had a chance to capture a moon image in the cloud like yours. I also shot some with lower exposure. The following example shows a blending image of two photos (use layer mask in Gimp). Still, some people prefer high-exposure ones.

    Nice! You so often had your bird target flying in the form of a plane just taking off or landing with its wheels under the belly.

    Awesome! Thinking about your place, you could easily deliver better images due to less light pollution. However, BF is correct that s.s. may need to be faster to avoid washout. I wrongly posted the Exif from the shot I set for the moons but washed out Jupiter. The one I better captured Jupiter...

    Peter, It was a single-exposure image without tracking. Shutter speed: 1/160", iso: 800, f/9. The Exif is shown below. I guess the image could be improved by multi-longer exposures with tracking and stacking. But I am still pondering how to make large-size high-quality images (the image I posted...

    Another try under poor weather conditions and everything was difficult: I used z600mm lens with TC1.4 for an 840mm focus length (very small FOV), before even focusing it was extremely hard to find/place the object in the LV by adjusting the tripod head, then came the horrible manual focusing...

    Dark shots

    You may want to play a little with exposure adjustment: ISO, shutter speed, and aperture. For example, lower ISO and shutter speed could improve your "light but washed" sample. Your "lighter" one is good, but you could slower s.s. to match your desire. Another way to adjust is to set auto-iso...

    This is my first attempt at imaging a Planet—Jupiter. It's not a great shot, but it is at least recognizable with three of its four moons. 300% magnified
