Description

Last Sunday when we met the snake (that I posted here), the moon was faintly in the sky; and for the fun of it, I snapped its picture -- at full 300mm zoom. I couldn't believe how clear it turned out; that I could see even the craters!! I had to do something with it. So, with a little more contrast and a few other tweaks using Photoshop7, I came up with this ... Too boring to upload? Maybe, but here it is anyway .. I think it's pretty darn cool :) !!! Hope ya'll have a wonderful Saturday !! Happy Snappin' ShariLyn

NOoooo. Not boring at all. You texturized it, eh? That really brings out the feeling of craters. Really good work, amigo.

No, no not at all boring. There is some digital noise visible but the picture has not been harmed by that at all. It is impressive, mostly because of it's details.
