the moon. I love this one too. I used something around f/4 or f/8. probably closer to 8. It was a fairly short exposure time for a night shot.

Exposure: 4 seconds, f 4.9, ISO 200

A terribly out-of-focus shot, included only because I liked the pattern that Jupiter made.

I was taking pictures of the moon and slowed my shutter speed... I love how it looks!

The crater in the middle gives it away! (No picture last night due to clouds.)

One of the better closeups I got of the moon

I still need to improve on my long exposure skills. however this capture with the moon and venus is not bad. the small blue cloud below venus and the jet flying were a lucky bonus to this photo
