That is from a place where I very like it, it's a interesting place to make shots, with this beautiful church in a simple valley from my city.
The idea here it is take the full moon in left of the frame, just above the top of mountain, but I lost the opportunity to the bad weather on a day before, wen it is arise on a right point. It is take in january, 2016.

Simple shot of the moon, except....on the upper right is Jupiter, with two of its moons visible.
370 million miles away! Not bad for the 100-400 f/4!!
From May '17.

Awesome shots! My contribution is the full moon rising between the spires of Cathedral Rock in Sedona.

2015 lunar eclipse. After a very long day driving in Iceland, I walked up the hill behind the hotel for the eclipse. As I was sitting there, watching some clouds that I thought behaved an awful lot like an aurora, but they were white. They, of course, were in the opposite direction of the moon, so I had to decide if I wanted to lose the alignment for an eclipse sequence or not. I opted for the moon instead. Other people saw the green of the aurora, but I must have been in the middle of it, so couldn't see the color. That's my only guess.

Great shots everyone! That Sedona shot is perfect Guy, what lens & camera were you using?
Mine was taken near my house in Lake Stevens looking east to the Cascades. The birds flying above the forest were a bonus I didn't see when shooting. Sony A7rII, Tamron 150-600mm

Thanks Jim! That was taken with a NIkon D800 and a Sigma 50-500 lens at 500mm.
Hey Guy,
That's a sweet shot of the moon! I totally had forgotten I had gotten a shot like that a bunch of years ago with Derek.
Oh man Darcy, this is pretty good!
It's hard to focus blend on these, the trick is to be further away from the foreground trees you are using to frame the moon.

LOL, well thanks but it is not good bwahahah! That is why I don't shoot the moon! But maybe I will try the trick you just gave me!
