I was thinking of some---
Macro shots of the moon.
Flashing the moon. (Using flash for moon pictures, what were you thinking?)
Do you have others to contribute to this thread? Lets have some laughs together.

Ok, they fit this category of double entendres. They still are fun to consider.

Maybe you should include just regular morons, as well as just oxymorons...

Cheers,

Double entendres means two different definitions, one usually of sexual implication.

Oxymoron means a combination of words that contrast or conflict with each other. The examples given: "Speedlight moon photography" & "Macro moon photography" are correct.

Common oxymorons are phrases like "military intelligence" and "with all due respect".

How about: wide-field tele-photography.

News flash! "Exposing under exposure"

News (no) flash! "A shot in the dark"

Cheers!

Press 'start' in order to turn off your imaging computer...

Wait: that's closer to an ordinary moron than to a oxymoron.

Cheers,
