That man on the moon has a very bad acne problem. ry

so, now tellme, where can you see the face? I have never seen the face, damn. .n

Squint, Antoonio. Turn all the lights off so you've just got the screen light and squint. And stick your tongue out with concentration. Now don't you look stupid? LOL

Wow. That is beautiful. I've been trying to get one of these for years. Have yet to get it right. I'm so happy for you. I had a major relization while looking at something like this. Wow. Bsteph

You shooting through a telescope??? And the second on makes me wonder, cuz the moon won't be full for a few days yet.

Nope just using my sony digital with a lens doubler

the second shot was taken last night the first on sunday night

w h e r e is the face, somebody, show me the face! I have stared that pic now about three hours, and no freaking face. I have even squinted with my tongue out like Jordy said, but noooo, no face. .n

I'll try it out also. What settings are you using? I want to get the best I can. I do own a telescope. I can see how good I can make it. But it usally looks blury. RJH OK. From this picture I can understand why it is called the sea of tranquility ect. ( The darker areas look like oceans relative to the rest of the moon surface! ) That was my sudden relization I mentioned previously! The man in the moon. Bstephs take on it. Remember this is astronomy so you need you imagination!! There are two eyes. The left eye is the smaller circle on the extreme left of the moon. The right eye is the larger circle directly across from the left eye. In the middle of the two eyes is a slightly darker section of the moon it almost could be a rock if the moon were perfectly smooth. That is the nose. Below the nose and on either side of it are the two cheecks. Finally below the checks and in the center where it should be is a small dark dot that is the mouth. The rest of the stuff on the left side of the moon is the ears and hair. The moon is a bald older gentleman with flushed checks! Alpha it not a full moon. It's close like he said it's about one or two days off so it looks full. Especially when it is so bright. Bsteph

Bsteph I will post the settings tonight when I take the last shot. Tonight is the full moon I think. I do not remember the settings right now and truthfully the camera was set on full auto mode.

Hehe, thanks guys, now I can see it. .n

Sorry Bsteph totally over cast last night even thought there was a full moon I did not get to see it. Will try again tonight weather permitting.

Thanks for the help though. I was luckier. However it was too bright for my digital. I tried the telescope with the moon filter as well. Still nothing worth mentioning. However I did try the camcorder. Success!! Not so good looking and rather blury but I did something much better than I had previously. I tried some with the 35mm when I get those back it they are of value I'll post them. Bsteph

Do you have spot metering on your digital? I had to use the spot mtering feature on mine so that i did not get a big white ball.
