Moon

A hand-held shot with my Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ200.   I love the FZ200 for I really am a rank amateur with cameras, just shooting away with the 'automatic' setting and getting some nice photographs.  I was outside early for 'The Morning News' photos and took a stab at getting this shot of the moon high in the sky as the sun was coming up.  Since it was quite light out the automatic settings were able to handle the light entering the lens much better than at night.   I did use my computer program Picasa to bring the shadow detail into play - but the detail was there.  This means that when I finally learn how to set the manual settings then I will be able to get better detail than this with no computer adjustments.
