BIG WOW! My late Dad would speed right over to get to learn about that camera ;-) He had celestrons and all and loooved to watch the sky, the moon, the stars, the sun. I was still a kid, but he invited Ingo over all the time, LOL.
Iris Flavia; I've tried to get decent photos of the moon for years, without success. I think because I can't see the horizon from my place, so when I see the moon it is too high up in the sky.
That shot is beautiful. Well done. My Cannon has a 50x zoom and I have a five or ten year old picture I took. Now, the camera is too heavy for me to hold steady. I do have a tripod...
Joanne; I have ordered the same camera and I'll see how it handles, but I think I may have to get a tripod also, because my hands get a teeny bit shaky when I'm trying to hold a focus.
I shall keep this short and sweet. Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! I am truly surprised to have received this: Laughing Horse Award from Yorkshire Pudding , also known as YP, for being the Australian Blogger of the Year. Click the link to read the nice things he said.
The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.

Looking forward to more awesome pics!

DeleteAs Iris said, wow. That is one serious camera.
ReplyDeleteAndrew; it is a Canon with 50x zoom.
DeleteWow. That is an excellent shot.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; isn't it just great? You almost feel you can touch it.
DeleteHoly moly, that puts us right on it. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteArkansas Patti; I wonder if we could see the moon landing site from your side of the world?
DeleteIncredible. OMG for a camera like that. Imagine what else it can do :)

DeleteOh, my!
ReplyDeletemessymimi; you almost feel you can walk there, right?

DeleteMy goodness! I wouldn't want to take a close-up of myself with that camera! I get a big enough fright now as it is, just looking in the mirror! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is incredible!
