As you may know, I recently I tried photographing the moon… and it turned out horribly. I was not prepared! Then when I was ready, I realized I needed a full moon. And then I set a reminder (that's another story) to remind me to photograph the full moon. And then I delayed it 2 more days.
Anyways after doing a little research and having more time to actually play with the camera, I got a shot! This is my first ever non-blurry shot of the moon!
Thanks Emily for some great info on how to photograph the moon!
Here's the settings I used:
One of the hardest things was trying to find a straight shot of the moon that didn't have tree limbs in it!

That is a great shot! I've never been able to get a good one of the moon!
I am so glad I could help Amy! The detail you were able to capture is stunning, especially in the first shot. Trees limbs have a way of creeping in there, don't they :)? Well done! Thank you for sharing!
Great shot of the moon – the Snow Moon. I have tried with little success to get good moon photos. Congratulations.
your moon shots turned our pretty well. great clarity.

That is a fabulous capture! I saw a huge yellow moon this morning driving to work and wish I had had my camera with me.

what a great shot. I am up early this morning and I was watching the moon outside my window
Wow, great shot of the full moon! Beautiful!

Congrats on getting a great picture! It truly takes some knowledge/experience to get a good shot of the moon.
That is so beautiful! I need me a good camera to take pictures.
That came out great! I took quite a few last night, it was beautiful!
Thanks for the link on how to photograph the moon. My husband will be very interested in reading that. Your picture looks great!
That is a terrific shot!
Wow ~ AWESOME Moon shot!! I will have to try this – as I too have tried other shots that just didn't work out! Happy WW!
Outstanding! It's so clear, more so than I can even see in person when I gaze up into the sky at night.
You did such a great job!!! I love how it came out!
Great shot, and so nice and clear. The patience and research paid off.
Love these. Beautiful shots.
I saw you blog button and grabbed it for my button swap / blog roll page and blog hoppers page.
