Let's all get out there and "shoot the moon" tonight. It's a hunter's moon; should be big and bright for most geographical areas.

Try F/11 and 1/125-1/250 and play around with the settings a bit.

Went out last night with my new and unfamiliar T2i and tried these standard moon shot specs. Don't have an appropriate lens for that job but I could see that those specs gave a well-focused white dot in the middle of an otherwise black photo. However, if my intention is actually to photograph a moonlit scene or landscape, must I leave the moon out of the frame entirely? Will it always dominate the exposure? Can I create a photo of the moon and winter tree limbs both in focus or are such things only in paintings? Thanks, D

It can only be done in painting.

Could doing multiple exposures (Like HDR) and then photoshop it all together be the solution?? Using either HDR software or blending modes in Photoshop??
