Sure, it’s a moon I captured on a slightly hazy night, but I wanted to really test out my tripod and telephoto lens and capture something my cell phone would just repeatedly fail at. Ended up going with a one-second shutter after a two-second timer so my hand wouldn’t mess with the tripod balance, and with ISO 100, I had a long enough window to capture good detail on the moon, at least as much as my 75-300m f/4-5.6 telephoto lens would allow. There’s bigger lenses that do more daring stuff, but this one is mine.

Thanks for seeing some really big sky cheese!

    Oh! I haven’t even gotten these into Darktable! I had just crashed out when I got home, and posted the JPG during a break at work! I’ll play with editing this tonight.
