Hello!

I managed to capture the full moon.

Stuff of legends.

Camera body: Canon EOS 550D
Lens: EF 75-300mm ƒ/4-5.6
Focal length: 300mm
Aperture: ƒ/11
Exposure: 1/500 s
ISO: Dual-ISO 400+800

Still not enough sharpness. And now there's grain too. In hindsight I was doing everything exactly right, except that today it wasn't windy. I could have managed this one with a slower shutter speed. Definitely, especially as this time I used a remote switch instead of timer. In about 10 seconds the vibrations were all gone, and I could safely take the shot. 1/500s was an overkill, and thus were the higher ISO settings too.

[Note for next time: If not windy, try 1/200s, and ISO 100/200]

I'm sure it was out of focus too. ;) Anyway, it's a nice shot. Not nearly as nice as the previous one. I liked the shadows on that one.

I'll be trying this again some day. Shooting the sky is kind of fun. Maybe I'll try shooting at the stars again too before my project is over.

Uncropped version.
