On October 26, 2018 at 6:22 a.m., I stood outside of my house and took this hand-held shot of the moon’s craters with a 300mm lens at 1/500 second, 5.6 Fstop. I remain amazed by the clarity of this photo taken without a tripod. Never been luckier.

Moon Craters
Three years ago, using a tripod in my backyard and a 300mm lens on a Nikon5100, I captured the bottom of a full moon. To this date I am amazed by the moon’s craters in this shot.
Backyard Moon
Went into our backyard about ten minutes before sunset yesterday. Saw the moon. Got my tripod and camera. The line is a telephone wire and the leaves are from the neighbor’s tree. And in the middle, of course, is the moon. Used a 300 mm lens, manual focus, 1/80 sec at 7.1. Peace.
Full Moon Tomorrow
I got a head start last night on Friday’s full moon in California with this shot. Confusing sentence? In some parts of the world the full moon is this Saturday, but where I live, we go full tomorrow, Friday.
