The detail is really amazing. Do you love your camera? I'm thinking of upgrading mine to yours. Among other things, I miss having a view finder.

@skstein Thank you Sandi! Yes, if you are looking for a point and shoot, this camera is great. It's not as small as some, but it's got a lot of fun stuff in it. My model has now been replaced by the SX60 HS but if you want this one, I imagine it's still for sale somewhere out there on the internet. I got this one after seeing another 365er's moon shots with the XS40 HS so I would highly recommend it. One nice thing about the LED screen is that you can flip it out and turn it. There are some fun special effects in it too- fish eye and selective coloring to name a couple. Happy camera hunting!

@maggiemae Thank you Maggie! Everything I know about moon shots I learned here! Isn't 365 great?

@hollymays Thank you Holly and thank you so much for the fav!

I feel as if I've missed a few extra thanks for some of your favs- so if I didn't mention you- thanks !! I think the extra clarity was due to the closeness of the moon to the earth in the early evening. My zoom didn't seem to work as hard on this shot. I don't know, but I'm thrilled with your response and the honor of being on both the TP and the PP with this one!

Thanks again one and all!

Just a quick note -- when I use your link to the salza file it goes to her latest photo, not her moon photo.
August 24th, 2015  
@taffy Thanks for the heads-up Taffy. I think I fixed it now.

Excellent shot, Ann! Love how you captured all the detail! You have to tell me how you did this. I don't think I am quite getting it yet. I can get a clear shot of it and show more than I have with my past cameras but nothing with as much detail as this. You know I'm faving this. Okay. Now I am definitely off to bed. I'll try to look at more of your project tomorrow or in the next couple days. I have many people waiting on me! See what Gavin coming did? But that wasn't a bad thing though, was it? I had so much fun with him!!
