 How about a "Moon Fish"

 That first shot is nice Bone, you can save it for later and add it to shots later to make some cool looking images. This is your moon shot added to this, flipped it and rotated to match the shadows.

that third pic is amazing bone. Really beautiful. Here's one from a few years ago at Burke Lake from mid April.

Thanks Cowboy.

I have a feeling there is not as many people who get that reference as you might think.   Kind of identified you age there wapiti, but then I guess I have also when I chuckled about it.

You got it.  WOW do they look young?  The double moon shot was taken while I was fooling around with double exposures back in the film days. Now its easy digitally but back then you had to work at it.  Key to a good moon shot is to show the detail like Bone.  Exposure is for a shot in daylight because the moon is a sun lit object.

I'm using CS4 Bone.

[sooperfly]

From a few years ago. Now that I have better lenses think I will go try again.

[wabearhunter]

wow nice shot sooperfly! never realized how bright a full moon actually is until yesterday, there was enough light out i could practicly shoot my bow at night

 The moon is VERY hard to get right.


 CR gorge moon.

[huntinluva]

All very cool pics.

It sure is if you want to have any detail in the foreground.  If you zoom on just the moon you can use a manual daylight setting like 1/250 th sec at F/8 and do pretty well.

Its hampered way more than its helped.    Its a pain in the ass when its full and all the critters do all of their frolicking at night.

And looking at the moon phase calendar, compared to this years hunting seasons that I'll be in the field, Many of us will certainly be hampered. Pray for thick clouds!

Here is a series of shots I stitched together from a lunar eclipse a few years ago.
