Was the 1st pic shot without tripod?

Was the 1st pic shot without tripod?

Hi Golgotha, The 1st pic wasn't shot without tripod.....but it was taken in soft grassy hill behind my shop and the pic can only be sharp like the 3rd pic if the shutter speed is no slower than 1 to 2 seconds lor :dunno:

Maybe I am just inexperienced for moon shoot

 

[Golgotha]

ic, but i like your last pic best. The way the moon illuminates gives a very 3D feel. Are you staying in Geelong?

Hi fisheye,

Glad to have you join this list/group of people.

I took a quick look at your profile and web link. I like the McKenzie falls shot, and it's got me itching to go. I also like Mt William.

Royal Melbourne Show (sled dog race event)
------------------------------------------------------

Just to let fellow ClubSnappers in Melbourne know, the annual Royal Melbourne Show is going to happen from 20th to 30th Sep. This show has been a tradition for over 150 years.

For the very first time this year, a sled dog race is happening on Sat and Sun (29th & 30th) Sep. If you like Siberian Huskies, you will see them there.

Entry into the showgrounds cost $27 for adults. (Woah... I don't recall it was this expensive!)
