Sea of Tranquility

How do you guys get such great shots of the moon??!! This was the best I could get before my pet brass monkey was emasculated.

Taken only for Ross' weekly theme of 50:50, probably hardest one so far this year for me!!

[FBailey]

Oh your poor monkey!! Did laugh:) I couldn't manage a shot as good as this one.

[Wendy]

This is excellent! Nothing wrong with it at all!
Better than anything I have ever done!

[Sally Ings]

Fabulous details. Love how you describe the 'crisp' weather.

[Casablanca]

I like it!

Skip Tribby wrote me some good techie hints on his shot last November. You'll find it here: https://365project.org/skipt07/new-visions/2017-11-03

Splendid...brass monkey et alia ;-)

[John Sutton]

Excellent picture ☺

[Carole Sandford]

Nothing wrong with this one!

[Richard Brown]

Great moon shot. Looking at your exif your ISO is bit high as is the shutter so you could probably drop both a bit. I usually use around 1/125 and as low ISO as i can get away with. That said I would be quite happy with this shot the craters look great! Fav

[Laura]

Looks good. I struggle to get a good moon photo.

[Rob Z]

LOL - but it's a great result. I love the ay it's so crystal clear on the edges!

[Jacqueline]

Wow, this is a wonderful result..........my moon is not nearly as good, so fav!

Hi Jackie, please be inspired by New Zealand photographer Jackie Ranken's kitchen stories this week for get-pushed https://luminous-landscape.com/kitchen-stories/

Well captured with great craters

[Diana]

I think you did a great job, wonderful detail on the craters.

[Merrelyn]

That's way better than any moon shots I've been able to get :)

@casablanca @rjb71 thank you both. I must admit I didn't Google or research how to do this! I shall certainly have another go another night using your tops and advice, thank you so much!!
@merrelyn it needed a bit of processing
@ludwigsdiana fluke!!!
@wendyfrost they do look ok don't they?!
@kali66 off out tomorrow to lob a food mixer in the air and stand cutlery in the sand!!!
@jacqbb luck and fluke!!
@robz that's a circular crop on a black background Rob!!!
@la_photographic so did I!!! This is a lucky fluke
@carole_sandford I see lots wrong, but thank you
@johnsutton very kind!
@s4sayer merci
@salza oh it was crisp
@farmreporter absolute fluke and cheated by processing to rescue it
@fbailey it's very very cropped,

Thank you all very much, now I have a better idea what to do expect more, soon!!
