Patience is a virtue
Possess it if you can
Found rarely in a woman
...and never in a man.

@joansmor I've got frostbite!!!
@s4sayer I couldnt possibly comment

[summerfield]

maybe use a tripod but even then if it's windy.... but be mindful of the camera's shutter actuation. aces on this though.

[JackieR]

@summerfield tripod used!!! Remote shutter clicker used!!! Patience used up! Thanks Vikki

[Richard Brown]

Well the end result is very nice well worth the perseverance :)

[John&Ann]

I'm impressed. I tried it with my telescope but the moon moves!!! A tripod does help but you have to track the moon. Good result after a lot of patience..

Terrific capture and details

[Diana]

A fabulous capture and details.

[Sue]

Well done for persisting. I have only managed to get one decent moon shot - I know how hard it can be.

[John Sutton]

Nice capture and worth the trouble 🙂

[Catherine]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond thank you! Back home now wading through hundreds of photos!

[JackieR]

@johnsutton @suesouthwood @ludwigsdiana @wendyfrost @jmdspeedy @rjb71 Thank you all so very much, thank goodness for digital, film would have been very expensive!!

Worth all the frustration! My Dad told me that you often blow an entire roll of 36 exposures to get just one that you like.
