RE: Practicing moon shots
Moons (and stars in general) are so difficult to capture in my opinion because not only you need to do the proper settings but also a lot of times you'll also need other tools like tripods (or any other platforms where the cam can stand on) and maybe a zoom lens although not necessary. I tried it before and I find it very difficult so I gave up haha. It is especially difficult in a very dark sky. You did a great job and I like the first shot, those clouds give a "Twilight" vibe haha.
It takes a lot of practice to be able to get more details and stuff so don't be too hard on yourself especially you're new to the camera as well. Good luck and hope you find the right settings and stuff soon before the next full moon. :D
Yes I figured that stars and the milky way would be hard as well. We have a very good natural park 30 mins from here and today I was told that it doesn't matter when you come, if it's clear you can see the milky way there. That's quite cool to know once I understand how to capture that, that I will have a beautiful spot near.
I'm surprised you think it's still an ok picture, I think only seeing the details is ok-ish but it was really the best one this round. It's a learning curve so I don't mind sharing the less good ones too.
Thanks for stopping by and have a good weekend!
