About After several comments on my previous shot of the Sea of Tranquility on the moon with my new lens, I tried again. I do thank all those that made very helpful comments and I personally am much happier with this shot...hope all of you are as well. The only PS work was cropping PERIOD.

You make me laugh. Your words were about the same as Doyle said to me when I said if I had told him I love my Darby (dog), except I think he lost count!

It's excxellent Marlyce... You're a very quick learner and 'what a wonderful lens' You got !!!! It's amazing.

I actually have a few shots of the moon and they look like small round light bulbs compared to this image!!!

I agree the comments are very helpful ..we all see things so differently.

Thank you Dave. I still have not learned the sharpness part of PS yet. I have only recently started taking raw and still working on getting that down before I move to something else.

Thank you Laura, the rims of the craters are there...I just don't see the American Flag...think I need a more powerful lens (don't tell Doyle)

Paul, this makes an outstanding wildlife lens too. I just came back from San Francisco and have some awesome shots of birds---when I get time to deal with them.

Thank you Mary. I was jumping for joy with this shot. My dad was so proud (space engineer). I have this printed in my office. Think it is my personal favorite (so far)

Thank you Lisa. I have a lens that only goes to 200, but after seeing the moon a few times, I knew I needed more. Doyle thought me crazy, but not the first time he thought that, now he wants to use it.

I'm back again Marlyce but I will ration the time I spend on UF in future as I neglected other parts of my life before my break. Hope you are well sweetie.

This is indeed a better shot than the previous one and you have achieved great clarity in this difficult subject. I echo other comments and say that this is one of the best moon shots I have ever seen and certainly the best on UF. Well done to you my dear. My very best wishes to you as always.....Ray;)

Well done, Marlyce, this one is way better. I fiddled with it a little in photoshop CS to try and boost contrast and sharpness.

You may have more success with a partial moon, as sidelighting will help emphasize the terrain. Great work.

Thank you Paul. I have listed my lens and I can tell you it is well in the money range of what you want to spend for a lens, at least in my neck of the woods. I am very happy with this, and have even taken hand held pictures with this without a lot of problems. Thank you for you comment.

This really is amazing. Like Paul, it is the best moon I have seen! It is so big and so sharp. I just love the colour and the texture. A real stunner Marlyce.

I saw you had posted two images of the moon and I must say this one is my favorite. The details are awesome! I wish I had a stronger lens than my 70 - 200 to try to attempt this. I saw the moon a couple of nights ago and I'm sure you took this then.

Great image! 7+!

Wow great moon shot Marlyce! That is awsome capture at that ISO level I would think for the d50! That must really be a good lens. I am looking for a long focal length lens that I can afford. Something around that range under say 1000 bucks?
You did and excellent job on this.....Great detail. I think this is about the best moon shot Ive seen!

Congrats Marlyce,

Paul E Brumit

Okay, I used your tripod, only because it was in the way of mine.....keep your stuff on your side of the room! Thanks for the "great shot" comment, maybe my rocket scientist of a dad will like it too.
