Dude.... The local rock station is playing Dark Side of the Moon right now.


The clouds just rolled in and it looks spooky now.

WoooooooW!



NICE SHOW, God!

And HEY ~~~

Looks like the Lil Green Men on the Moon scraped up enough coin to pay off their electric bill ~

The Moon Lights are coming back ON!

I didn't get much time to take pictures as it got cloudy quickly here. Here are three shots I managed to get - two of them being "oops, wrong setting dummy!" I think they came out pretty cool looking anyhow.

Jess -- WOW!!! I must say I tried to get some pics tonight but I still just don't know how to use my camera properly... plus my zoom is nothing... I just have the stock lens that comes with it. I really need to invest in a nicer lens with a bigger zoom.

We did have a telescope out there though but it was difficult to keep up with the rotation of the earth and once we lost the moon in it we had a hard time to keep finding it again, lol.

May I ask what techniques/materials you used to get your pics?? They really are fantastic!

I used a tripod (only used the remote shutter button when the moon was red), but had to angle it and hold it myself because I couldn't get it to lock.

For the half moon shot I used:
f11
1/200
Metering spot
300mm focal length

And for the red moon shot I used:
f5.6
1/2
Metering spot
300mm focal length

It won't let me know what ISO I used, but I think for the first it was 800 and the second it was 1000.

Kay, those are neat shots!!!

Great picture, Jessica!!

I managed to get a couple, even though I was pretty disappointed with the quality. It was still fun to watch!
