With a 300mm lens, couldn't you have gotten a picture that close by cropping a full size image, rather than zooming?

My first pic is a cropped image with a 200mm lens, no magnifying.

Some great pics here.

Dudie yours is very good, what lens were you using?

Ta. Cheap and cheerful Sigma 70-300 APO DG, stuck on my 50D on a tripod. Image cropped slightly. Would love to try something a little longer, with a more precise focusing ring...

Daffy, how did you manage to take that first pic with a cheap Sony point and shoot and 7.9mm focal length? Were you on board an Apollo mission? 😀

What I find a bit disappointing is the way that few of you are using any imagination in these photos. Its always square on, Tycho in the bottom right-type stuff.
How about tying to take a picture from a different perspective, say, from behind the dark side, go on, I challenge you 😉

Dirtybike, how do you get the correct exposure for the tree without the moon being overexposed?
