The Moon 10 November 2010

As it was a clear night, I thought I'd dust off the old 300mm F4 L and see if I could focus on the moon. Not as sharp as I'd like and the high ISO creates some noise, but despite the lack of a tripod I quite like this shot. 
1/100sec at F6.3, ISO1600

First shots with the Sigma 105mm EX F2.8 - my first with a dedicated macro lens. Not a bad set of first efforts, though certainly a lot of room for improvement. The EOS 40D proved my biggest issue, it's been so long since I used it that I couldn't remember how everything worked!

All at F2.8 and ISO200
