This jlsdihgk of which you speak is only mildly comprehendible to me. I'm just happy that I've been able to find those settings and play with them some. <BR/><BR/>Night shots almost always turn out yellowish for me. The moon really did appear a fair bit rustier than this. Perhaps I should have played with the colour in Photoshop.Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2629654067597010887.post-18562225950064257762008-02-22T00:28:00.000-05:002008-02-22T00:28:00.000-05:00Just amazing!

It certainly helps to RTFN. ;)<BR/><BR/>• Thanks, Reb. I'm happy to share mine with you. :)<BR/><BR/>• Nope, no tripod, Craver - just the railing on my balcony - which became more difficult to rest against as the moon rose higher in the sky. Thanks for your kind words.<BR/><BR/>• Thank you Geosomin, and welcome. A mug of tea sure would have been a good idea last night. <BR/><BR/>I'm learning to play with aperture and shutter speed. Next up is a tripod and zoom. :) Thanks for stopping by.<BR/><BR/>• Thanks, ex-S.
