I think it’s because it’s so far away and every tiny movement is a huge movement in the sky. Like lightyears away for one tiny move. I don’t think any settings would help (?) I don’t know since I obviously didn’t figure it out. But I think that’s why! I took an astronomy class last year and that’s what our instructor said when we were looking through binoculars and the telescope. (hc)
***Week 6 (?)
This is a shot of the lunar eclipse on Wednesday night. I know it’s blurred (I guess that’s the right term) because I didn’t have a tripod or anything to sit it on, but I think each image is still in focus. I just think it has a neat feel to it.
this is pretty cool. i actually took some pix of the same thing wednesday night and i could not figure out why i couldn’t get a good shot. i wasn’t sure if it was my settings (which i sat in the cold adjusting over and over for 20 minutes) or if it was just because it was so far away and the camera couldn’t pick it up? -or simply as haley said because there was no tripod? if anyone has any ideas, please let me know…thanks:) (bh)
