A new photo every day for a year……

Picture 87

Another attempt at photographing the moon. This time I thought that I would try to photograph the moon without using a tripod, to see if I could handhold the camera steady enough, well I can’t. Normally I would have deleted this picture, but I posted the picture to show what a difference it makes mounting the camera on a tripod and using a shutter release.

Handheld
