Hello Mr. Kovačič!

Barka is small place near Divača, that is province Primorska, which means that this province is very close to Slovenian seaside (morje is sea na Primorje mean near the sea).

And yes, Slovenija is very photogenic country

I took first image one month ago with Canon SX 220 HS, handheld, 14 x optical zoom +2 x digital.

Another one I took it at 02. april 2012, handheld, 14 x optical zoom + 2x digital.

I use manual zoom, M or P mode at ISO 100 and I usually use between - 1 or -2 stops down, depending how bright the moon is.

And both samples are not processed by any software.

You can also try bracketing in S mode, just start at 1/100 and rise up to 1/250 or even 1/350 (that is all for ISO 100). And just save the best results.

If one use tripod, than one need to switch off IS and vice versa.

M mode, ISO 100, 1/125, f 5.9, -0.33


M mode, ISO 100, 1/50, f 8, -1

Shoot 26.01.2012 handheld in full manual mode with Canon SX220HS-14x zoom + 2x DTC:

ISO 400 f5.6 1/100

I am recommending FSViewer, it is a fast, stable, user-friendly image browser, converter and editor:

Very nice in did, I like it!

And the all were taken without flash!!

I like the 3`rd one very much, the first one was over processed, the second was over exposed.
Can you posted original from 3`rd photo, not just crop, please.

I use FSViewer all the time and it is fantastic, try it, it is free for home users.
