Yep, good shot all right...

What Camera were u using?

I assume this is a crop...I would have to crop mine to get this close and I use a 100-400 on a 7D2, with a 2x converter for effective 1280mm

Yes cropped of course. Sony A1.

That is a REALLY GOOD shot!!

Thanks very much Charles. I'm also sure the seeing conditions would have been very good too, making for a clear image.

A couple of days ago there was the fortunate coincidence of the full moon, low on the horizon as the dawn was breaking. This drastically reduced the contrast levels and the cool of the morning reduced some of the atmospheric impacts as well. Shot hand-held

My first moon shot. I took this from the side of the road (HW 20 in Utah) late at night coming back from a photo shoot in N AZ. I was not planning on stopping but I had my 800 f11 on my R5 sitting in my back seat. I pulled over and was amazed a the moon, even if the night was a little hazy. The spot was a between 7-8K feet in elevation. One of the really dark sky areas of the State. I did not have a tripod out and it was really cold so I hand held the shot bracing the camera on the luggage rack. I thought my first effort worked out.

Hand held bracing on the luggage rack this looks really good to me!!

Thanks, I was really surprised how well the shot turned out. The elevation and the dark sky helped really enhance the brightness of the moon.

I have learned my lesson, last week at the Outsiders Photography Conference in Kanab, UT, I learned my lesson. Get a good tripod. I got a great deal on a Carbon Fiber Fotopro tripod. Not their high end ones, but a good solid tripod that is light enough to carry all the time and quick and easy to setup. Hopefully more night shooting in the future.
