Yeah, given that angle to the moon I suspect I shot that right around the steens in south oregon...   :chuckle:

Yeah, I went down there Kirk.  It was good times despite the fact that all we could find were some crummy little 175" bucks...   ;)

I haven't tried too many moon shots, but here is one from my early archery season.  Bone, here are my settings, but it looks like I could have got a better photo following Pope's advice on shutter speed.  This might have been the same day as Kirk's photo.
Dreams are forever on the mind, realization in the hands.

Yeah, you need a little more umph with the moon than 280mm.  It's nice to have 800mm or more...

I got some.  This one would work with the "in the background"  theme also.



Another one, with the moon featured.   :)  At 1000mm.
