Good morning, Luna!

Quickly took out the DSLR on a tripod before breakfast and caught this.

Used a 75-300mm lens plus 2x teleconverter, giving an effective 35mm focal length of 900mm, f/11. Clearly it's not an ED lens - look at the blue fringing!!

I like watching the moon's phase this month. Every day it gets smaller and smaller, counting down to Kielder 8)

single 1/160 sec exposure at f/11, ISO 400. Cropped and edited a wee bit.

Thanks!

I wish I could just plump the ED80 on a tripod for a quick shot, but it's permanently set-up far from the house. The quality difference between that and the budget camera lenses is extraordinary.
