Here is the Moon from last night, boy wasn't it bright eh. It was a tough one to get right without over exposing any parts of the Moon/Image.

Here is a cropped version.




And here is a link to the Full size Image which shows the details much better :).

Thats a great shot !!!! A full moon is a challenging target to expose for such detail!!!!!

James,
cool shot! It certainly was a bright one the past 2 nights. The only downside I can find is that it appears too sharp, which takes away some of the natural look about it.

Jamesw,
Nice shot of the moon. Superb contrast! As Seanie said, it is just a tiny bit sharp. A little less and it would be perfect I reckon. Worth tweaking and re-posting here if you like.
BTW, I like the way you've done the image title in the top left corner too.

Thanks gang,

I agree it is sharp isn't it, to be honest I was after as much detail as poss without burning it out and looking over exposed.

A re edit will be coming which will be less sharp :wink:

Regards

James
