Erm, that'd be me then

Seriously, though. On a site I moderate on, the rule is paid up membership, OR, registered for over 6 weeks. This stops people from using us as a cheap alternative to Ebay. However, we get a few a week trying to join just to sell their car. I don't know how big a problem it is on here.

Having photographed the moon many times, I love "Moonrise"

FWIW, the moon isn't larger when it rises, it is an optical illusion as there is more context than when it is high in the sky

I've never thought of doing this, in fact, very few of my shots ever get printed.
Now that you've mentioned it, though, I might consider doing it.

OK, taken on board what was said. Stopped the lens down a little more and tried again.
What do you think?

I'm seriously jealous of the DoF you've managed to get on the later (7 & 8 day) images. Mine always go out of focus towards the edge ( I focus on the terminator )

Very nice set.

I like this, it makes me want to get my MESuper back out and put a roll of film in it to try again.

Thanks guys.
The pineapple was cut up 5 minutes later, so I'll have to buy another, but that's no hardship. I enjoy playing around with the lighting / flash etc. so I'll re-shoot and post again

18mm you say? How much were they cropped?
I particularly like that you can make out some nebulosity in Orion. And you exposure times are just enough to capture the dimmer stars without showing too much motion.
Well done!
