Great stuff James, we are up in Lake district for a few days so hopefully i can get a few moon shots in.
Yea Jim...give it a go, but the moon can be very challenging at first. Took me a few tries. Keep ISO low if you can.

It's been awhile since I've taken any moon shots. So gave it a whirl tonight. But the image looked kind of blah, so I added a star background. If anyone wants to add yours...please feel free. I'm just goofing around tonight since it finally warmed up enough to be outside at night.
I like the star background! Nicely done.

Yea, that adds a lot to an otherwise common image. Might have to do that more often. Gives it more appeal.

Thank you Kindly Richard. I like your idea. I'm ready for some more of those B & W treasures of yours.
Thanks for the comment, James. I just posted a new one today, "Light under an alpine bridge."

Yes, it was nice this afternoon, but getting colder again, expecting more snow for the next few days and some more nasty stuff on Wednesday.
