Artist's Comments

This style of phototography is called astrophotography.
This was done using an Olympus OM1 and a Televue TV101, 4 inch refractor. This was shot at a focal length of 2250 afocally using a 12 Nagler type 4 eyepiece through a 50mm lens. The film used was Kodak E100 VS.

Let me know what you think, commments and critic's are welcome.

Nice shot, due to side lighting and shadows, lunar crescents always show the relief within the craters more than at full moon.

Wow, super detail on this. I've been trying to do this for a while w/my digital, but I haven't tried it since I got my Rebel 2000. Your efforts definitely paid off. +fav

Very well captured, I like the contrasts of darkness and light, the shadowing, nice how you can see the craters...and it's off-centered, and I like that, too!!

Centering isn't always the best for photographs, especially if you try to let the viewer feel they are actually there, within the photograph's walls.
