Summer Evening, Barn and Moonrise
Just out playing with a new camera. Cropped out about 1/3 of the sky.

D3x, 80mm, ISO 100

Nicely rendered, Ed. I think you're going to like that new D3x. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

Sweet shot, Ed. I love the detail in the moon!

Nice Ed. Great to see you back where you belong. I'm sure you will put that new camera to good use. Hope all is going well for you. :smile:

I've never seen the moon in quite that much detail, especially the darks. Quite a good rendition of a contrasty scene.
That's either a superior shot or a function of that new sensor on the D3X--or both !!!

Larry this image was two captures one for the scene and sky and one for the moon. Post production was pretty easy with a simple cut and paste of the properly exposed moon.

I was a long way away from this barn which helped compress the moon into the scene. I just needed the sun to light the scene but it was not to be this month. :smile:
