Taking a Photo of the Moon Takes a Lot of Practice and Patience
Last night, I wanted to watch the moon rise so I asked John to come with me to the Hummock Hill, but unfortunately it was really windy and cold. We decided it would be best to go home.
Even though it would no longer be a Supermoon (I missed it on Wednesday night because I was with my Connect Group) and the moon phase is waning gibbous (still looks like a full moon though), I still wanted to take a photo of the glorious heavenly body. I was hoping it would still be bright and big like the other night.
For about an hour I tried taking a photo of the moon. It was hard. By the time I was ready to click the camera, the moon was not in the center of the scope. The brightness of the moon was almost blinding but I just kept on trying to get a perfect shot.

That is absolutely amazing, you can even see craters and lines on the moon surface! I have never had the opportunity to use a telescope before, and had no idea you could see so much detail with one! And well done for preserving trying to get a clear photograph - it was definitely worth it.

Yes, absolutely magnificent. It was definitely worth all the strains in my neck and my shoulder trying to adjust the position just to get a clearer picture of the moon.
I am thankful to my husband because he bought me this telescope last year as his anniversary gift for me. He knew how much I loved the moon and the stars. I would love to see a planet too but I am a newbie and so still learning. The moon is of course easier to spot.
So my husband buying the telescope for me is like him literally giving me the stars and the moon. I am very blessed.
