mongo1936 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I took these 'moon' shots a few months ago. DSCN1251A (blueish) is from about a year ago. DSCN4216-A is from Jan this year. Both taken with a Nikon P100 'bridge' camera. Modified with Photoscape. Any opinion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stiggy Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Both Taken with Lumix G2 Moon and tree shot just from my hammock, as the moon rose on Koh Tao regular lens and turned exposure down to get silhouette. Close up shot taken with 200MM lens and tripod, cant remember the setting (sorry) but was playing with exposure times and F-stop and this was best shot.

Tywais Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Afterwards, when I had already left the place I figured out that I should have used the camera settings for the moon and simply use the flash to show the lantern as well. Yep, flash fill would have helped a lot. Even if you use it, you will still have an issue with focus. Foreground or moon? Would need to set a high aperture to be sure you get close to infinity or DOF will put you back to square one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kan Win Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi Folks, So cameras out this Sunday as the Moon will be the closes to Earth this year at approx 2-3% larger. This Moon should start to be seen at around 6.11 pm, if the report that I read is correct in our local Thai-English newspapers. Will be ready with me 70-300mm lens and Oly E-5. Hope the clouds in Kan will be kind enough to move on. Win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[edit] What is the yellow curl on the underside of the moon in post #36? With that long of a lens my guess is vignetting. It was natural vignetting, then. After googling myself I learned vignetting is usually intentionally used as a feature. But the way the shot came out, indeed made me feel i could go ski in one of those craters.. Pardon my FrenchSuksi vittuun, is the proper translation, I presume.. Yours, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancealot Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 But the way the shot came out, indeed made me feel i could go ski in one of those craters.. Pardon my French:whistling:Suksi vittuun, is the proper translation, I presume.. Yours, Suksia means to ski, but about the whole sentence, you might need to a word with your Finnish teacher. That's the last warning before knifes are taken in to the play if said angrily to a stranger or to a person we don't like. Then again, if said to a friend it softens to much milder way to say bugger off. It was meant as a joke.. Thanks for your politeness.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[edit] What is the yellow curl on the underside of the moon in post #36? With that long of a lens my guess is vignetting. I need to correct myself, I meant to suggest chromatic aberration aka purple fringing. Normally it is a purple fringe around an object with very long lenses but doesn't necessarily have to be purple if the image was color modified any. My apologies for the incorrect terminology, rushed my reply. The SX50HS is prone to this due to the extreme zoom. "By 1200mm, heavy chromatic aberrations put multi-coloured halos around high-contrast details that were visible even after we'd resized to fit a computer screen."
