Morning Moon

This was a hand held shot I took this morning and was surprised that I could actually identify a crater on the right side of the moon. The blurred diagonal is a branch that was pretty close to me. I like the blue background as opposed to the dark sky.

Thank you for comments on yesterdays "Rainy Day"

Beautiful clear shot - impressed that it was hand held.

this is really something. Question I often have about moon shots: is it cropped? When I take pictures of the moon, it's always an itty bitty circle in a vast sky. I study the exif info from people's shots and don't see how they get such big moons.

@francoise This is not a cropped photo, I took this with my zoom camera. When taking a photo of the moon always use the longest zoom lens you have.
November 11th, 2014  
I'm very impressed that you got this hand held!!!
November 11th, 2014  
great!
November 11th, 2014

@_catherine_ Thank you for your comment, fav and follow Catherine.
I took this moon shot from inside my window, you should use a zoom lens, 300 or larger, and F11, iso 100. Hope that helps, give it try.
