Hope this is the right category.
Been wanting to shoot the moon since I was in primary school when first introduced to astronomy. But since I have no access to a high powered telescope, a telezoom lens will just have to make do.
Please tell me what you think of it. Wished it could be sharper, but I guess maybe time to ask CSC to take a look at the focus on all my lenses and body. First few shoots realised that it was overexposed, not allowing me to see the details of the sea on the moon. The reflection of the sun was too strong. So decided to slow down the shutter speed to 1/1000 while keeping the aperture wide open. Finally got a few shots at different shutter speeds - from 1/500 to 1/1250. But found that this is a nice one.
Thanks in advance kind folks.
PS: No throwing of rotten eggs or cabbage please ... a BigMac I wouldn't mind at this moment, 20mins past 2am! Stomach is growling!
