Damn!

I haven’t got a 239,000 mile setting on my focus ring.

Moggy

Yes you do Moggy, it’s that little flat 8 on the ring also known as infinity:D

Certainly for the night time shots I use spot metering so it ignores the rest anyway. The section of the image that “spot” uses is slightly smaller than the moon in the frame so I guess it exposes just the moon correctly.

The meter just sees a bright light and shuts down to what it thinks is a mid grey which is what you have here, you and I know that the MOON is more a bright white, if you use manual you can get a more accurate pic of the MOON as you see it, I hope you don’t mind my comments, I’m just going off what I was told
by a tutor a long time ago.

moon

M-O-O-N. That spells Moon

Auto I think. Generally the ones with odd apertures will be program mode, the F8 or F11 ones will be with aperture priority

Ah–thats the reason some are dark, the camera is under exposing because of the brightness of the the MOON,:D it happens with snow on auto it can come out grey, like the last shot a lot.

MOON

Derekf were those pics taken on manual settings or auto?

Be very interesting to know exactly what papers, both you and Moggy read,as I havn’t heard either of you giving ANY Papers a good review.

How does a thread on Mandela end up with Himmler in it?

They both were involved in murdering innocent men woman and children.

Himmler never killed anyone did he, but try selling that one to the Jews of the world, 5 hundred or 5 million their blood is on his hands. what I always find
nauseating is people like him and the likes of Myra Hindley and others always find God AFTER they get banged up but never before, strange that.
