Nice shot Pete.

Hmm. I see you've got the clear skies down south tonight, while up here,
we've got the clouds. Oh well. Nice pics.

Excellent Pete, thanks for sharing with us.

A couple of questions about it - you can probably get from the EXIF data if you used
a normal digital camera ?

What was the shutter speed, aperture, focal length ?

TIA

EXIF is no good for this shot Nick as the lens used is manual only.
Details are f/8 16mm Zenitar lens, Canon 10D, 22s @ ISO400. Camera was
tripod mounted.

Page has now been updated (if you only see one picture, refresh your
browser) with another shot. This time the Moon was higher and I
decided to have a play by stacking the images.

Ah, many thanks for that Pete, decidedly better equipment than I've got no wonder it
was such a good photo
