Blue Moon


Tamron SP150-600 mm F/5-6.3    ISO2500 F10 600mm 1/4000s

So I will admit to a bit of post production trickery in the first of these images.  Given that this is the second full moon within this calendar month it is called a Blue Moon, there won't be another until 2018.  It has nothing to do with the colour but I thought I would play around and create a blue image for a bit of fun.  

The second picture is more or less as shot with just a minor adjustment for contrast and highlights.  If you look at the bottom edge of the moon you can make out the contours of hills and valleys on the moon's surface.  

At these settings there is still a bit of noise so I will keep practicing to get a sharper, clearer image.
