Cool....which telephoto lens did you use?

Thanks! A Canon 300 4.0L Aspherical lens with a Tamron 2x converter on a Canon 10D DSLR....oh yeah...and a tripod!

The 10D has a pre-stage mirror lock up in BULB mode to reduce camera vibration. 'Shooting the moon' is a matter of underexposing.

Great lens...I shoot MLS soccer with that lens on a 40D. About the minimum setup I can get away with for night sport shooting. Good thing the pitch is well lit.

Nice moon, I thought your shots looked crisp, you must have other L's too!

Thanks...I also have a 200 f/2.8 L, but the lens I used for those other shots (except the A-Bay sunset) is the Canon 50 f/1.4 prime. I also the 100 f/2 prime. Those lenses are built exactly like the 200 L and every bit as sharp, but about half the price. Canon really makes awesome midrange primes.

I thought about switching to Nikon when the D300 came out because I'm a sport shooter and the Nikon can shoot 8 frames per second vs 6.5 for the Canon 40D I use, but I don't think anyone else can match Canon's glass for quality per dollar.

The floor of the pool rises to double as a heli pad...

It seems you are a yacht-fan too! I'm on yachtforums also... hehe.
