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.
I am one who would love to but not sure how. I will be looking forward to all the wonderful pictures and information given.

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.
This is a shot from this mornings moonset.
Great color in the desert sky.

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