THE DARK ROOM -- Developments of the evening scene

[Mike S]

was playing around with PS and my half moon shot from the other night and made it into a full moon with a space warp around it. kinda cool i guess. i was happy with the way the moon came out

[John Rayner]

Neat construct Mikey... Here is a shot just for you and Maya. Da moon in clouds...

The other is tonights, moon, for those of us who can see see her in all her beauty...

[accessD]

Try taking a shot of the moon... You will find out it is just as Mikey says... addictive. I have spent over $1k US on my addiction, so far. Mikey has spent close to that also...

I must work for ~8-10 month (and not eat) to collect such summ

John i would like to see that much it is supposed to clear up by tonite. so hopefully. its frustrating with the weather here. when the moon was out in daylight hours the skys were clear now that it is back out at night its cloudy again.

still going to try and do some deepsky shots when the the weather breaks.

Hey Dimtry...

I came close. Had to save for quite a while for it. But I have taken over 7000 photos so far. It is almost as much fun as pwaying with xara, and that is saying alot.

Not all of those shots are of the moon tho...

Yo Mikey...

It is supposed to be full at 8PM eastern outer mongolia time. Sun sets at 7:00 PM. Should be some fantasitc shots, if the skies hold up.

its been cloudy all day and we just had some showers. i am hoping for a break in the clouds doesnt have to clear up just a few breaks in the clouds and i will be happy. I was just looking atthe radar and it looks like i might get a few shots tonite

Evening everybody . Just popping my head round the corner to see what you are up to. Great effect using PS on that moon shot Mike . It was a full moon here last night...couldn't sleep as it was shining right through my window. Hey John, if you're looking for a Halloween subject howabout a self-portrait . Just joking John, I can't help it . Be gentle.

[Mike S]

ok the sky cleared up now i just need to wait till the moon breaks the tree line and hope the clouds stay away. going to try to use a 2x barlow lens to see how much closer it appears.

update at 9:15 I GIVE UP clouds rolled in severe thunderstorm warnings rolled. i am doomed with cloudy skies

[John Rayner]

the moon rose...

Rushed to get set up... Tripod up... Camera lenses swapped... Set it on the tripod... find the moon... Rain starts falling....


ARRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!

Maybe before bed I will get a window on the moon...

Okay... so it is a wet dream...

Hey Chris,

Naw...

prince charming isn't scary...

Now if I wanted scary...

I'd borrow one of your pics...

[Mike S]

Glad to see i'm not the only one with weather problems Welcome to my world. kinda dark and scary at times. just remember John walk towards the light, walk towards the light!
