...for a full moon (tonight).

So take your best moon shot tonight and post them here.

Need tips of moon shots? Here is a previous thread on it, chock full of great tips.

I also think that this is one of the useful tools for photographing the moon.

I actually took one last night. It was my first ever attempt at a moon shot. I have to check my camera for the settings....and it's not near me at the moment :(

woohoo, my 70-200 should be here today, might have to try it out with some moon shots.

Yeah, I know that isn't real long for moon shots, but it beats the hell out of my current longest lens 28-70.

Not bad.

If I could ask everyone that posts a photo, to enter the EXIF information, we could all learn.

There's a decent article on Yahoo currently with numerous links that should be of interest to those into photographing the Moon.

I just read that it's going to be a harvest moon so it's going to be bigger. *excited*

I hope that the pictures I take tonight turn out as well as the ones I took a couple of nights ago.
