Happy Friday

I am so excited, I finally found the perfect opportunity to take a photo of the moon!  I'm a little obsessed, in case the exclamation point didn't give it away.  

Now, I don't own a tripod or a wireless remote, but I read somewhere (not sure where) that you need a faster shutter speed to take a pic of the moon, so I thought if you used a faster shutter speed, then you wouldn't need a tripod?  Oh well, I'm not the professional.

49/365


ISO:  200
Shutter:  1/800s
Aperture:  7.1
Focal length:  200mm

and then, she {snapped}

  1. LOVE your moon shot! And I had no idea those were the settings to use (thanks for posting them). I always assumed you had to slow the shutter speed down and use a tripod. Very good to know! :)

  6. That is a great shot of the moon. I think you have inspired many of us to try your shutter speed etc. Your other photos are beautiful too.
