Moonshot, with a difference...
Posted By: nobbsie, 09-26-2008, 06:28 PM

I've noticed that most moonshots are taken at night, well here's one I shot at sunset in March. Not much detail in the moon but I love the colours in the sky. PP was done in Bibble at the time.

Shot with the "poor" Sigma 100-300mm f/4.5-6.7 DL @ 300mm, f/11, ISO200, 1/100s

I'm impressed that the clouds held the colour without blowing out the moon. Well done and nice exposure!
Well there was a fair bit of pp to bring the colours out. The original capture was very low in contrast, almost all a greyish colour. It's amazing what you can do with RAW.

Thanks for the comments

Timing was great to get the colours and keep the moon well exposed.
Cool!
