Now then, If anyone requires a curve ball Zep cover, how about this one, Sheryl Crow doing Rock and Roll, I was never really a big fan of hers-but she is damn fine on this version and she looks a lot better than "Percy" Plant too!!!!!

 

Yeah, but only using one square of toilet paper leaves a stain in my mind.

Here's the same Moon shot with my Canon 70-200mm L (no IS) with 1.6x crop factor as it's attached to a 50D over Sampson State Park, NY at around 23:00 last night.

 

Been here for almost a week in the camper as our Newfoundland dog was exhibited in the 4 day show which finished yesterday. His best place was best of opposite in the best of breed section which we were really pleased. I'll be back to normal service for me here once I get back home later today.

Here's one more picture, a stack of four consecutive shots, unsharp masking, crop to 3200x2400. Note how the moon traveled against the stars in the background during that time (90 seconds, at 04:55 UTC+2).

 

The difficult thing is that with long focus, you cannot expose too long, or the stars will become lines. Also, the moon will look blurred because of that movement. In addition, the moon is slightly "slower" than the stars because it travels counterclockwise around Earth while Earth rotates in the same sense, but 28 times faster.

 

The first picture has an exposure time of 2.5 seconds, the fourth one has 1 second; all with ISO 1600.
