I tried a tripod last time there was a super moon. It didn't help. I still managed to shake the camera when I depressed the button.

My sister tells me I need a polarising lens (based on tonights efforts)

Ever wonder where wormholes come from?

I think my niece has just found out.

A cosmic worm

hahahah she shakes more than I do

Hubs took these from our front verandah, we live in the "bush" so no pollution to cloud the sky

Love them!  Thanks for sharing.

(My cheap, digital camera just can't capture it.  Not even trying.)

Wasn't an expensive camera, around $200 from memory, being able to set it on a tripod helped greatly. He is far more patient than me, took him 1.5 hours and 46 photos to get these ones.

pimpy, set the camera with a 2 sec timer, no touching then 🙂
