How about a thread just for sky photos, night or day "telescope" dudes, and dudettes;)

I got this one with my cellphone today, but wish a camera of any kind could catch what the "real deal" looks like, and feels like:love_heart:

Great photo Denise! I love the look of those clouds, big fan here of the sky, clouds, stars, etc.....unfortunately not a telescope dudette. :D Here's an old shot I took while camping, some threatening weather was moving in early evening.

That's lovely Seabreeze, and I do have a telescope, but it doesn't have the "camera" option;) so it's my cellphone usually. Just always have that;)

I think I have a shot of the Moon during the fires and heavy smoke last year. Let's see if I saved it. I remember now, it blured, oh well;)

Awesome moon shot Denise, I never got a moon shot that was worth sharing. Smoke in the air can cause both sun and moon to appear very strangely. :cool:

I was bummed to see it blurred, but others maybe have some good ones. The night skies fascinate me.

Moon shots are tough
I asked a photog at the local camera shop
She explained why I was too technically challenged to understand by giving me the ‘play with it’ brush off
Asked an amateur enthusiast
‘The moon moves too fast for the aperture (hole) to capture’ (my words, and yeah, the camera shop lady was right...I still hate her)

‘Set yer Canon to AV’
‘Use a tripod’
‘Sit out of an evening and wait (best to shoot it on the horizon)’

That worked…sorta

The sun is not near the challenge

they give so much more than any of us could possibly take
