Moon Over the Glade

(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.  Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

I keep trying, without a great deal of success, to get a decent picture of the moon.  It seems to be a hit-or-miss affair, but I consider this photo, from my archives, a hit.  I like both the color of the moon and the fact that if you look closely you can make out some of the craters on the surface.

I share your frustration, George. Some people are sooo good at taking moon shots, but not me.

You do not make bad photos. Any shot you take turns out great. This is no exception. I just seem to never get a good one of the moon.

Very, very good George. What aperture, shutter speed, and focal length is that? I do NOT have very good luck taking pictures of the moon. Seems like I always get a lot of glare.
