Moon


It's the first day of February and the moon is approaching its fullness again. This was the full moon roughly a month ago and it was shot using the zoom function at f8 at 1/50s. But you'll have to shoot it at a higher resolution so that after you crop the photo, you'd still have a moon that does not appear pixelated. When I have time, I'll superimpose this moon onto a night scene of the skyline to achieve the surreal feeling.

not too bad... but still quite blurred out by the shape of the moon maybe you should use fireworks to improve your photo..or perhaps get a pic of the moon from the website!

The picture is blurred probably due to two reasons: 1. camera shake. This is especially pronounced at full zoom. 2. reduced pixels. The moon on the original picture was smaller than a five cent coin and this was enlarged to its present state. The resolution was likely compromised. Will try to do a better job next time. :)
