Next full moon I'll have to set up my tripod and see what I can manage. I like the pictures with clouds the best as they have more atmosphere and drama. You have some really beautiful photos on here - and I totally understand your fascination with the subject - I just love looking at the moon, always have.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1960643399875385511.post-91808617323275075172010-10-14T09:31:07.750+01:002010-10-14T09:31:07.750+01:00thanks stoneweaver... good to *see* you.
I've...thanks stoneweaver... good to *see* you.<br /> I've been working on the moon shots for a good few month & can still manage some great disasters, lol.<br />As the moon is very bright, you need a fast shutter speed... some compact cameras allow for manual settings and have brilliant zooms.<br /><br /> If not see if there is a setting for exposure bias/compensation... a clear full moon can easily go to -3 & on automatic, the camera automatically adjusts. But, each phase & any cloud calls for different settings, & cameras vary, so its a case of experimenting.<br /><br />A good starting point for full moon on manual settings is f5.6 & shutter speed 1/320... too bright try 1/500 or faster... too dark try 1/200 or slower. It can vary hugely. Its hard to get the clouds & moon clearly together unless there is one across the moon to diffuse the light. A crescent moon could be 1/60 or less. It also depends how far you are zoomed in.<br /><br />I think i shall have to do a post on this to explain better!taranovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13279421644544210735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1960643399875385511.post-10896745654664212062010-10-14T07:02:42.640+01:002010-10-14T07:02:42.640+01:00These shots are stunning.
