Limerick Moon

Moon Dooradoyle_20070927_0019_1

I took this when I was back in Limerick a few weeks back. It was a gorgeous harvest moon hanging low over the city. Unfortunately I didn't have time to grab my gear and head outside to someplace where I would have been in a position to take a shot that included the moon and the city.

Nice one! All my moon shots (is that right?) turn out poorly. I can never get them right.

ps. I sent a mail to your yahoo a/c last week. Did it get spammed out?

I am drawing a blank on meeting you! You'll have to fill me in. Email me at johnunderscoremcunderscoredermottathotmail.com

I really liked the site, and i would like to discuss it with you.

I didn't get any email from you. Try the email address above.

Re the photos, a stand and a relatively long lens are essential, and even then it's hard, because the moon is moving relative to the earth. A fast shutter speed is necessary.

Okay. I resent using a Vodafone domain. The last one probably got spammed out.

Oh, yeah - It never dawned [sic.] on me to use a fast shutter speed. Moon motion or not there is always atmospheric could cover, heat radiation etc. that would mess up the shot.
