That is one of the most rewarding comments I've ever had on my blog, thank you! I am pleased with how clearly it's come out, the craters on the edge look so clear don't they? As if you could touch them!
That's great. Kate's Creative Space did a post on photographing the moon so I was having a go last week. I've improved slightly but need a better lens to achieve anything close to this. Beautiful. This would look lovely framed in The Boy's room. x
You have no idea how many times we've seen it in the past week and a half! Such a wonderful series for inspiring the children to learn about their place in the universe though!
You have no idea how much Stargazing that we have been watching! I can tell you exactly at what minute the spaceman's glove joke is made by Jon Culshaw!
Kriss MacDonald says
My kids just saw this image and have spent the last ten minutes looking at the craters and asking me questions about the moon. Amazing shot.

Kara says
Absolutley stunning…….I need to know how you did that. I took one yesterday with my new lens and it is nowhere near as good!
TheBoyAndMe says
Thanks lovely, it was my 55-250mm lens and I used a tripod. Settings: ISO 400, f5.6, exposure time 1/400. It was also really, really frosty!
