shooting the moon

How I took this shot:
zoom, enhance!

I took my camera, a Canon 50D and put it on my tripod. I set the camera to ISO200, 1/250 seconds, and f/8 aperture. I locked the tripod and focused on the moon. I use a 10 second timer so that the camera would be as steady as possible when the shot was taken. That’s all there is to it, bar cropping in photoshop.

place camera on tripod

aim at the little white dot
