I remember back in March when I took a shot of the lunar eclipse. I uploaded it to flickr and people went crazy about it!

I really like the white highlight on the upper right, and also the way you composed this image, as Keith said. I went out last night and got some shots of the "sturgeon moon" like this. Mine on Flying today are from early in the morning of the eclipse.<BR/><BR/>Now I'll check Keith's out . . .ruthhttp://flying.my-expressions.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32054737.post-82916350183952443252007-08-29T20:59:00.000+12:002007-08-29T20:59:00.000+12:00even this shot is amazing:) So the earth is really a globe..you can see the moon too:)heheZsolthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02682965776518357417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32054737.post-1823474964231880022007-08-29T19:16:00.000+12:002007-08-29T19:16:00.000+12:00Thanks all!<BR/><BR/>Yeah, Keith yours a good 200 and can take TC. But mine cannot, it makes too dark. It is not sharp enough to my like... but you are right, It ends up quite good balance with space around.
