Taken through the eyepiece of my 8" reflector telescope. Yes it is upside down and back to front, but i didn`t turn it around because i think it looked better as it is. And yes i know it`s been done a million times before but it`s the best landscape i know of.

Well, even if it has been done several times...I can't get enough of them...thx for telling me how you did it, I'm still trying and can't get it right.
i love moon shots and have tried a few... this is excellent i like the border too....now i have a challenge for ya get an airplane moving in front of this moon :-) 9
This is pretty cool, but I had to give you a 9 instead of a 10 because I couldn't find the American flag the astronauts left up there. Maybe it was on the dark side of the moon this day! I can't explain why, but the white portion of the border is a little over bearing. Maybe a thin white border with a thicker black border would give it more balance.
I think the square framing works well with this shot. Excellent capture of the detail, and I like that the moon is in the bottom of the frame with the "shadow" at the top. I think that makes for a strong composition.
These are not easy shots to capture. Some might question whether this is a landscape or not, but personally I think it fits just fine. Only knock is that it's a bit blown out in the lower left. All in all an excellent photo though. 9 md
Great shot of the moon, I just love the detail you were able to pick up! You must have some setup to get such a close view. Perfect phase of the moon to take a pic too. Framing was real good and I even liked the border in this case. 9.
very nice moonshot. i like the texture created where the light hits the craters at a 90 degree angle and creates the shadows. excellent exposure and focus. nice choice of framing the dark side out of the picture. 10
Whoa. I need a setup that can do this. Great detail in the craters at the top. Good exposure & focus. I'm not keen on the white part of the border, it's too big & overpowering. I would also have left more black space in shot so that the moon wasn't centred. Still, nice work.
what a big lense you have .... anyone know what it would take to get this magnification ? i mean that is huge, 600mm ? i don't even know which number to click ;)
