Someone was smiling down on me

[Caz]

..tonight, I'm quite literally tickled pink by my efforts, even though I had a few hiccups at the start of the evening, all did come good in the end. I usually have so much trouble focusing with the Canon, but it looks as though it's come through for me.. And as a bonus, my first (decent) mosaic :sunny: Perhaps a little too heavy on the contrast.

300d afocal, 30 iso, 3 panes 25mm ep and my trusty newt...

Excellent 8)

Well done, a good night all round by the looks of it

Bingo Caz. You've built yourself a super moon there. You should be tickled pink, and you did it, nobody else.

Anyone who hasn't made a mistake, hasn't ever made anything. This business is a learning curve that aint never gonna flatten out.

As Parker woulld say "Well Done M'Lady."

Great shot Caz, I think the contrast is OK (but what do I know?)

You want me to work my magic on it in Photoshop? :nono: :whip2:

[themos]

Very nice. But rotated 180 degrees. Don't mind me, I'm just envious after taking dozens of handheld afocal shots tonight and all of them stinkers.

Ron.

The times I've tried to do a mosaic, and I've failed miserably. It certainly pays to never give up!

Thanks for your wonderful comments 8)

Many thanks Ian.. 8)

I totally agree, what do you know? Seriously, the contrast is a little heavy..

:laughing6: Thanks, but no thanks...

Very nice. But rotated 180 degrees.

There's always one... Tbh, I was too enthralled with my efforts to not careless about rotation, I think I can be forgiven. Thanks for your comments Thermos.

Superb Caz.

Now yer cooking with Caz oops Gas

Cheers Jamie

no there isn't 8)

It's nights like these that I forget all the relentless, lousy, cloudy evenings with not a star to be seen. All the times, I've had such ambition to get a decent moon shot, and ended in disappointment, I can now leave them to one side... 8)

I shall feed from tonight's success, for a few days to come.

Thanks all... :sunny:

That's an excellent mosaic Caz - spot on focus and can't see the joins !

The moon was co-operating last night - very stable atmosphere.

Caz....You da girl..You da girl..... 8)

Can I ask what framing software you used for that one?? As the one I use is a bit carp...

Very nice pic indeedy.

Thanks goodness for that, I don't know whether the way I did it, is the norm, but it worked for me... Thanks MD 8)

Greg, it wasn't framing software, it's all done in Cs2. All I do is create a backdrop for the image to be framed. Then in your 'Layers Palette', double click (not on) to the right of your actual image layer. A 'Layer Style' menu should appear, you'll see 'blending options' to the left of the box, just tick the boxes for the effect you see fit.

Thanks all for your comments... 8)
