tonights moon

Great shot Surreylad, I know how hard it is to get these shots, this year on 21st 12 month the earth will alien up with all the planets so look out to take shots then, the end of the world so they reckon because of the Mayan and eygyptain and another calenders all stoped predicting no more written after this date, but I think a new era.

i've had some info from meanie and hb...yes so they say but we'll see :-))

:o))

Nice one...I have tried tonight as well, but it is far too cloudy to get one.

Nice one surreylad, it was a beautiful moon tonight.

thanks Pimpernel :-) i was lucky a break in the clouds :-)
Thanks Sticki it was very beautiful tonight :-)

I tried to get one earlier when the sky was pinky blue but we were on a motorway, soooo frustrating.

Just tried again..not a chance

Cos of cloud or camera?

Clouds are thick and fast, and I am trying with the Canon and manual focusing not getting enough time to focus.

OH was trying with his camera, canon 30D, didn't get much either.

that would have been a good one sticki, sorry pimpernel i know what you mean though the clouds here are wizzing by...

Oh dear I wont sleep! Good pic :)

It was Surreylad but I don't think the police would accept it was a really good photo opportunity and that's why I had to park in the middle lane!

You going to take photos instead of sleeping pixi?

lol no...i never sleep the night of the full moon..well id otnsleep well anyway but not usually at all then! Really

I never sleep full stop! Got a very bad pic

3.30am try again now pimpernel, I reckon I have one!

Setting f8, iso auto, 1/125 ??

Made a note of the setting Thanks....you're up late Sticki.

The moon woke me up! Was awake for ages.

hope you got some sleep Pixi :-)

i don't sleep very well either, normally awake most of it, did you get a better pic Pimpernel ?

No Surreylad..I posted it anyway. I will try with Sticki's tip next time.

I have yet to see the results of my night of taking photos, have to put them on the other computer.
Was interesting changing the f number, that seemed to make a big difference.

good luck :-)

Was awake on and off prolly had about 2hrs sleep!
I got the ladies coming for art class today too :(

me too pixi.

I'm like a half shut knife this morning lol

did you take any photos?

No my camera doesnt do that..i dont think...lol maybe it does..I'm not very good with it..I tend to use my phone camera to take most pics..I guess I really should read instructions..but I wont lol..maybe ask Rick if he can help. :)

or use google!

hope your art class ladies behave even if you do have a little snooze!!

Well I'm not very good at taking things in sometimes..just reading..i prefer someone to show me then I learn better. :)
GOing off for a shower now..hope it wakes me up..they wont mind anyway. I have an hour!

Well done SL. I've never taken a good pic of the moon I should try better ... I normally sleep well but a full moon does keep me awake so it obviously affects people somehow ..........

Well if it can affect the ebb and flow of great seas and oceans..and our bodies are 90% (?) water..I would think so. I never sleep well around that time..at least one night of virtually no sleep. It affects people's behaviour too. my kids classes are rage at that time! etc etc :)

i havent noticed before. blustery days always made the children wild/wilder!!!

More divorces happen then..well splits etc..watch for it! :)

interesting!!

Also ..you can plant your garden by the moon
