Aiyoh...! Sounds like that morning of the eclipse - heavy rain for eclipse viewing, and now thick clouds for moon shooting.
Looks overexposed to me. Try higher f/stops.
For me, I usually use f/10 - f/13 with 1/25 - 1/100 (depending on cloud condition) at ISO 100.
A shot of mine to share:
18-200mm @ 200mm
f/10 @ 1/25s
ISO100
Manual Focus
ha ha ha .. wait some commando mosquito lands on top of your Hoya then we'll have something interesting silhouette eh?
ok ok, when you mentioned ulu i started seeing coconut trees and insect repellent. hee hee. i seldom travel la.
wa dun say that man, i dont dare to call myself a pro. i think if anyone pays me for a shoot in JB i can call it an important overseas assignment already.
Hi, I shot this with a Fujifilm Finepix camera with a plastic telescope from Carrefour. There's lots of shake as everything is hand held.
Hi,
