I read an article on how to shoot the moon with an iPhone! So With hopes high I followed the directions.

This was such a beautiful picture in my head. The moon was bold and clear. So clear you could make out all the details on the surface.
I do like the NightCap app to capture low light shots like this. I need to learn more about how to use it properly.

I did some more research and snapped this shot with my Nikon.

I learned that my lens isn’t strong enough. But the tripod was helpful in steadying my aim.

Closer to the picture in my head. I’ll keep working it out.
Wonderful. 🙂

I’ve struggled with taking photos of the moon also. Your last two photos came out really well in my opinion.

It is. I think it’s one of those things that takes a while to figure out. I don’t feel like I have it yet.

I tried forever and didn’t get what I was looking for until I got a (very heavy) zoom lens.
