The moon is one of my favorite motives. It has his difficulty. On the one hand movement is in contínu, with what the speed of obstruction cannot be very low; for other, you have not great light (in not very nearby planes), for what you have to work with the diaphragm very open; also, the quantity of light depends on the phase in which he is...You can do is to take the photos when the moon is closer to the horizon, because it has major size and, sometimes, certain orange tones that give him very much delight delight The moon gives a lot of game in assemblies. If you play with double exhibition you can promote his reflection in a lake, or in the sea for example...

With my Nikon D50 I use normaly the chamber in manual approach and to the infinite, punctual measurement (to the moon), diaphragm to 8.0 and speed of obstruction approximately in 1/125, but this one can change if you take in the city or other place or country.
