Thank you, kind Sir!

I was just about to commend you on your moon shot actually! Over what period of time were those shots taken? Which software did you use, if you don't mind me asking?

Taken over about 15 mins trying to get best exposure to bring out the detail. Processed in Photoshop CS5. Taken with Canon 55-250mm zoom lens. Have since borrowed my dads reflector telescope with camera attachment to try for a bigger image, but so far its been too cloudy and the moon has not reappeared yet.

Wow, you used a 55-200mm lens? That's fantastic!

I would love a telescope to take pictures with, but can't really afford one now having just bought an iMac ;). Plus I live in London, so not many stars out in these parts.

Still, great photo!

EDIT : @Sprool would it be possible to get a copy of that shot ??? I absolutely love it.
I had a camera set up looking through a telescope in 1986 when Halleys Comet was about and got awesome picture. Thats right only the one lol but they still use the image in the brochure for the school

be interested to see your comet shot!

I wish i still had it mate. I was 14 when i took it. I have moved that many time and now in the last 10yrs have kept copies of everything i have taken only bc of the digital age . . . . . Ill try looking p the school and see what i can can up with. Don't like my chances though :( We had to set it up and then waited for it to come into frame. . . .

I know this thread is not exactly swamped with entries, but would it not be more interesting to post a different theme up each month for the photograph contest? Winner of last months suggests theme for the next month...?

That's a pretty good idea, Sprool!

Who decides who the winner is, anyways?
