Hi Michael, Beautiful detail on the moon's surface along with nice lighting. I also like the fact it's off center....

Thanks Dave. I like the 10 x 10 crop with a little bottom weight to it for shots like this. I was afraid that my 800 was having focusing issues but after yesterday I proved to myself that the problem was behind the camera.

A friend of mine told me he saw the moon yesterday but he didn't have the reach that I did. I told him that I stood on a bucket :D

Hey Michael,
Must have been a big bucket:D. Nice comp and exposure as Dave mentioned. Very sharp throughout too!

Michael, love the sky tones here, and outstanding detail on the craters.
