Really Great Shot

stunning, might as well put my camera away.

Friiskiwi you're just too modest. I am planning writing a tutorial once the contest ends if anyone is interested.

Help!..... I feel miiiiiiiiiiiserable.....
Hey guys, can't we say it's off topic or oof or blurred or whatever else?... no?
ok. It's perfect.
sigh...

I am definitely interested in that tutorial, Author (I was even going to request one until you made your last post)!

Awesome shot!!

Just stunning, please do write that tutorial

Very cool!

Thank you very much for your support and votes.

just how do you beat a shot like this.................

Ok, so, this is awesome!

I am still going to enter this contest, fully knowing that I cannot compete....amazing shot, wonderfully composed, clarity etc, etc, etc. Stunning! Looking forward to the tutorial....thanks for sharing this amazing work

Jaw-dropping wow..

i like itttttttttttttttttttttt

Very good... excelent entry.

I would only suggest a minor adjustment in the composition and framing. It's a very powerful image and I think it would work even beter if you had the arm comming straight from the top and in the centre so that we could see the full splash in the frame.

Anyway, it's a great shot.

nice punch dude...

cool

Congrats for your first place, Mogrim!

Congrats Mogrim, awesome shot

beautiful indeed

Beautiful!!!

Thanks!

I don't understand, I used Canon Digital Ixus 75 on SkyWatcher 200/1000mm on EQ5 mount--28mm eyepiece 2". I wouldn't cheat on this, but you know that Moon is always facing the same side to Earth.
Maybe you found this because I already have it online... On AstroForum and Zvjezdarnica forum... From Imagesforme.

Okay, here is the AstroForum of Zvjezdarnica, to proove I didn't steal the photo from the internet:

The first imagesforme link is the link to that picture, I have later adjusted the photo for better quality.

Here you go, translated from Croatian to English:

i love it!

good idea

nice

Thank you. I think I have learned lots of things from the comments and suggesions of everyone. Maybe I'm getting a little better...
Wait and see the shots I made today (hope they can fit some contest soon)

very nice, the only suggestion I can offer is perhaps a greater DOF by shooting at like f/22+ to get the entire photo in focus.

itsmymoment, I would have loved to have everything in focus, but I'm afraid you are talking Chinese to me... what is "f/22"?
Do you think my Sony DSC-S90 4.1 mega pixels mpegmovie VX camera allows me do what you suggest?

Nice idea......great shot!! GL
