I see an empty black box.

Okay, if I maximize the browser, I see the moon.

I am wondering why there isn't a horizontal scroll bar. Is that a forum bug?

What screen resolution are you running at?

Dan, did you use a tripod? I assume the answer is yes.

Very nice shot Dan. I was watching it a few times here myself. It was very bright in the sky.

A bit blurry, but given the distance and what my shots would like it's awesome

Let me know if you ever have a zoom you're trying to re-home.

Been putting it off for years now.

You forgot to color in the other stars

j/k

Nice looking shot...I'm not really seeing the blurry though.

Hell, compared to what I'd shoot it's sharp as can be.

1440 x 900 here. I normally have the browser using around 2/3 of the monitor width.

blebs · Post by **blebs** » Sun Aug 05, 2012 5:28 am

Mine is 1600 x 900 and it almost uses up the whole space. I'll have to check on my laptop. It has 1440 x 900.

Beautiful shot, Dan. It looks as if you could reach out and grab it!

Amazing shot Dan, thanks for sharing !

It looks sharp to me, the only artifacts I see would be a hint of purple/greenish tint around the edges.
