1st Moon Shots

[daltoned]

To-night I spotted the Moon clear in the Sky over Dublin. Although still only getting to grips with new camera and lens, rushed out and tried a few shots. It was very windy, hence some movement in shots even with tripod. Here's 2 for review and comments welcome.

That must have been some wind, Eddie! heh First one is good considering the conditions and it's your very first time. Did you do any PP on them?

I really anxious for the warmer weather so I can get out there and give that a go.

My hat's off to anybody venturing out in adverse conditions for ANY reason. Well, if I WORE a hat, it would be off, ok?

Hi Gary, No PP on the shots, just size reduction to get them uploaded on the forum. Wind was high enough, gusting strong to gale 7/8.

I like the first one too Eddie.
I saw my chance the other morning but something esle came up and I was not able to take any pics, tonight I could not see the moon at all!

Thanks for comments, also for Andy, looks like there's some fine weather this weekend so we might get more chances for moon shots.

I think you did great! I've shot a few of the moon but still working on getting better shots. I'll have to try them again with my new 'sturdier' tripod.

They are very nice. I like the first better.
