Inspired by Ken's moon detail shot and decided to give a try myself - got my tele lens this evening!

"Our man in the moon drinks clarret,
With powder-beef, turnep, and carret.
If he doth so, why should not you
Drink until the sky looks blew?"

Just another shot of the moon. I know, there are millions of them out there, but I always wanted to have my own. Also a good opportunity to test my new tele zoom lens. This is a crop of the original image.
The Full Moon becomes totally immersed in the shadow of our home planet, as it glides through its orbit around the Big Blue Marble we call Earth.
This eclipse also corresponded with the Harvest Moon, and was close to Perigee - the Moon's closest point in its orbit around the Earth.
Some other names are given to this eclipse, but because it's not scientific - but rather idiotic - that name will not be mentioned here.
This image was taken through a telescope at the James C. Veen Observatory near Lowell, Michigan.
"I fought the clouds, and the clouds won." This image was only made possible because there were some breaks in the clouds that allowed imaging to occur, but after this photo was taken the clouds completely obscured everything until - of course - two minutes after the eclipse was over. Stoopid clouds.
The bad thing was, the local meteorologists - who "supposedly" know how to forecast the weather - earlier in the week said the weekend was going to be great, with clear skies for the eclipse. But suddenly yesterday they changed their forecasts. I think we should sue.
When the sun is going down
and the birds take his colour
and the moon is behind them
everything is possible

This is posted to ask for help! (Obviously the composition is not interesting - I'm trying to learn to use this new camera). I used manual focus on the telephoto lens, and I am confused about two things. First, shouldn't the moon be far enough away to need infinity focus? But when I turned my focus ring all the way to one side, it went through clear and then became a little fuzzy again. So I had to turn it back slightly and try to decide manually where if looked the clearest. Second, I kept thinking I had it showing in focus on the LCD - in particular, the craters on the right side - and then when I'd take the picture it wouldn't be as in focus as I expected (and yes, I was using a remote so I wasn't touching the camera to jiggle it during the shot).

So, I set out to take a nice full moon picture of Aloha Marketplace at night. Set up my bracketing exposure for what I thought would make a great looking HDR with the moon and the city lights all properly exposed...Once I got home and looked at them on the screen, I realized the moon didn't have the detail I wanted. So, since I happened to have some great moon pictures from previous shoots, I decided to blend them in Photoshop. My original intent was to go for a realistic look, but then I figured, if I'm already going to this much trouble, might as well go big!
