I've got my EYE on the MOON, I know you're there...Damn DECEPTICONS!
Stayed outside to get a capture of the lunar eclipse...
3 a.m. Eastcoast time a few days short of Christmas = Nut SHRIVELING Cold!
Fine, I admit, the moon was mostly red. But man, this is so much better! Has a little bit of a "Boom" factor to it, lol. Can never go wrong with purple!
I left a good amount of GRAIN on the MOON, gives it more texture and a less FAKE look and feel.
(btw, CROPPED really tightly)

Awesome!!! We had rain all night so there was no seeing the moon in Halifax. These colors are amazing.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?! This is beautiful. Hermosísima. Def Kid Kudi-esque.

It's so hard to get this right. I was out with a crappy 70-300mm and an Orion teletrack mount and it all went horribly wrong. Congratulations, nice work.

thanks, I shot this with my 70-200 and on an Induro ball head and tripod setup. damn wind kept shaking the whole thing so in the end, I said forget the long exposure and went with aperture priority instead of manual and got the hell out of there! getting way too cold! lol
