Thanks much appreciated
But focus isn’t as sharp as it can be with my gear plus I was messing around with settings too much to really capture the moment as intended. But that’s part of trial and error and preparation so lessons learned for next month haha
There's a wonderful website "timeanddate (dot) com"
that help place the moonrise (etc.) at the phase... time, and compass direction (factor in the declination) for your location... the full moon is indeed more challenging than the waning or waxing moon... and some say less interesting ; ) One great thing a...
Thanks.
I used that site to figure out where to go for the moon rise. It has loads of useful information Thanks .
