Seemingly easy, but waht I learnt, photographing the moon is quite hard! The reason is, the Moon moves! Duh! Since it is dark, you typically shoot for 1 sec to 4 sec. during that time both moon and the earth move! So you never get a sharp circular disc. Digital makes it slightly easy.all opinions expressed are mine and only mine. not to be attributed to the other IP address sharers, my employer, or any other human, animal, robot or alien.
