I have never take a photo of the moon like this before. Last year I bought a lens off of Amazon just for the heck of it. I am so happy I did. Now I am learning about other equipment that is needed, back to Amazon I go so I can take even better photos!!
I am currently obsessed with the moon which means I have a profuse amount of photos of the moon. I won’t be sharing too many on here as I imagine others are also, but I thought I would at least share once!
The photo on the left was from a couple nights ago, the first time I tried taking a shot of the moon and the photo on the right was from tonight. It is pretty cold out tonight so I was numb when I came back in. I am looking forward to summer moon shots, I think I will learn and practice a lot more than I am now.
Thanks for stopping by I hope you come back again soon!
Hi, I find your photography amazing. Let me know if I could use them to complement my writings. Goes without saying that I’ll paste a link to your site under credits. Thanks.
Thank you so much! Yes you can use them, I’d appreciate the link 🙂 Thanks for asking!!
Thanks! 🙏:-)
Hi! I hope you don’t mind me asking what is the specs of the lens you used to capture the moon. Thanks!
By the way, you have a nice shot of the moon.
Thank you!!
Not at all!! The lens I used is a Vivitar Series 1
f=500mm 1:8 and I had the 2x converter on the lens as well.
Thank you for sharing Jessica! I got curious when I saw your amazing shot and I’m looking for a higher specs of lens for our camera. Don’t know what to buy. Thanks again!
Great shots of the moon! I’m jealous…I always try to take a picture of the moon, but rarely succeed. I know it’s my equipment, so do tell…what did you buy that works?
It is definitely about the equipment you have! The lens I used is a Vivitar Series 1, f=500mm 1:8 and I had the 2x converter on the lens as well. I got mine from Amazon and it looks like it is about $120 right now from Big Mikes. Thanks!! I look forward to seeing a great shot of the moon from you one day 🙂
Thank you, I appreciate the details!! One of these days…I’ll capture the moon too!
These pictures are awesome. I take pictures of the moon, but the camera I am using cannot capture any discoloration. When I can afford a camera with more features, I hope my pictures are half as clear as yours.
