Nice. I was outside shooting same. It was -3 degrees Fahrenheit. Damn cold, too cold to concentrate. No fogging on my lens though! Hopefully I got some useable shots.

It was only 25 degrees f here so no problems. I took my camera outside at 8 pm to acclimate!

Thanks I appreciate your kind comments! The moon was high in the sky here so live view on the flip out LCD was really handy. I just used my phone to change settings and take photographs after adjusting tripod for each shot

Duh why didn't I think of that! Actually I'd have used my laptop with the camera tethered. I did use the fold out screen and live view with the camera on a tripod. It was pointed almost straight up since the moon was high in the sky. I used my remote shutter release. It was 33 rising to 35F while I was out there. Guess we were having a heat wave in Louisiana.

Thanks for reminding me of a better way!

Very nice. I couldn't get a shot of the moon. Had the neighbor's tall trees in the way and couldn't get a focus on it. But I'm enjoying your pic. Thanks for sharing that.

I feel better now that I've seen someone's pic that is good. Nice job. Next time I"ll try your settings as a beginning and see what happens.

Thank you for sharing.
