October 30

A Day Late

I was not able to shoot the Hunter's Moon yesterday, so I tried it from our backyard tonight.
Not a very good result, I'm not sure if it's the 80-400 or me, though I tried several different apertures and shutter speeds.
It could also be the high humidity which is 81%.
I will try again in the winter when it's dry and clear.

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF
1/200s f/8 at 400.0mm iso200 (on tripod) full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

You are a perfectionist. V

Looks brilliant to me Walter - with all the grey cloud and rain here, just a bit of humidity would be welcome!!BV

It looks pretty good, Walter. I agree, there is something lacking... the pizazz. I do think it is the humidity or some other weather weirdness. But really, it is nice and crisp and detailed so I'll vote.

I almost hit a deer driving home tonight because i couldn't quit looking up at it.

Agree with Carl: very nice...!

globalgadabout		31-Oct-2012 02:35
light enough to hunt by, and there's a rabbit on this globe...great that you even have a clear sky...up here it's a grey, turgid mess..

Carl Carbone		31-Oct-2012 02:27
I think it's a pretty darn good shot.
