Those are some fantastic shots of the moon. I guess I need to wake up earlier, I have been trying to get a good picture when it is pitch black outside middle of the night. Looks like early evening or very early morning are the best times, not 2 am.
That was a nice song, is that the same Mike Oldfield of Tubular Bells? I like that moon song, I of course had to search for it, and of course the first version the sound stopped half way through, so had to find another one. But it was well worth the hunt.
Good morning @bashadow,
thank you very much for your kind comment and compliment on my photos 🙂
When i made the first shots with the big telephoto lens it was about half an hour before sunrise. I would say early blue hour. The black sky on the photos results from the short shutterspeed, and I think you can make these shots in the middle of the night too, but the stars need a long shutterspeed while the moon doesn't. I have tried star photos only a few times before, but they didn't come out well, because I don't have fast lenses - mine are lenses for landscape photos from aperture f/4 up.
These photos were made about an hour later and although I was hoping to get some more photos on my way home I was very lucky to get to that spot at the right time and that the moon was even on a better place than I had thought 😀
So, my conclusion would be that as long as the Hive price don't go up high enough that I can afford faster lenses I won't get up in the middle of the night for moon photos 😉
Yes, it's the same Mike Oldfield: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Oldfield - Youtube didn't like Steemit and it does not like the Hive neither it seems.
He is a great musician and composer. I am not a huge music fan or listener, but sometimes I need to put my earphones on and forget the world around me ... from Rammstein over Elvis and Dolly Parton to The Who or Lindsay Sterling, I have no real preferences ;)
Have a great weekend and take care.
