Moon Photography

Hey guys like i said in the previous post with Canon SX30is yet another sector opens its door. It's Telephoto, and in that my favorite is Moon Photography. It follows the Earth on our yearly trips around the sun. It’s a constant companion, ever changing and moving across the sky. It’s our moon.
Being the brightest object in the night sky, it’s something photographers of all levels can shoot, however it does take planning and preparation to accomplish.




 Like I said it might be tricky, but not impossible. Some of the tips given below could help you get best Moon shots.

1) Shoot in the Magic Hours: Moon has its own Magic hours which differ each day by about an hour. You can go online and find the time for moon rise in your city. The hours of Moon rise the moon is red. Its awesome to shoot the red moon.

2) Keep the ISO low to avoid the noise in your Photo.


3) Shoot in full manual mode to get full control of shutter and Aperture. Use f/8.0 for best results even f/11, f/16 works fine. Shutter speed of 1/60 could be good.

4) Try to get other objects in the foreground to make the picture interesting.
5) Lastly, give yourself time. Time to scout out a good location.

Keep Shooting..!!!
