After seeing how clear it was, I thought I'd try what has been read so far in my learnings. I yet to master using the manual mode on the camera, learning when to change setting etc. Lens used was A Canon 70-300, setting used in manual mode were,1/200,F10, and ISO 100. At least being out in my yard that early, I made friends with a raccoon who was on his way to my bird feeder for a drink we just kept our distance from each other and it all worked out. The second picture was just before sun rise.

For a first try, those are great. The one with the trees is excellent. It is hard to get the moon solo without a very long lens. You've done well.

Thank You,
I'll keep trying not sure if I can afford a 400mm lens to replace the one I'm using 70-300mm

Thank You, I too am retired and learning a new hobby. Its fun so far and I'm a early riser so mornings are great for me. You'd be surprised at what comes along while you out and about.
