This is awesome. I would love to get some of those extenders. Cindy

why is it that close-ups of the moon make me think of grapes . . .=]

Wonderful shot.
Guest 26-Mar-2005 15:56
Wow, that's fabulous! You must have a MASSIVE lens!

Neat - only a hazy moon here. Can't get that close with my camera :(
Guest 25-Mar-2005 10:17
Words are not enough - this is truly stunning. Well done.

We have to work throughout the entire holiday season, but I love your moon. SO many take images of that moon, but to me it looks every time different.

Very, very well done!

I was seriously thinking of buying a 1000-1500mm lens that's on eBay for £170. If I could get someone to hold the front end steady, I could probably get a photo of someone picking their nose in St Andrews from Dundee Law. I certainly wouldn't be able to hold it steady enough to get a shot as good as this - not without a very expensive tripod (or a couple of really expensive tripods!)

This is an amazing lunar shot. Very nicely accomplished.

Wow.. drolling over this wonderful capture.. and the lens.
Guest 24-Mar-2005 23:05
Eeeek, I see the toy was out! :) Great detail.
Guest 24-Mar-2005 23:01
That's an amazing shot.
If my maths is correct (probably not) that lot = 1360mm lens!
Great result.
Enjoy your long weekend.

Like you I'm looking forward to time off, John. Not been sleeping all that sound so have seen the moon leading up to fullness.
