Photo Feature by Angie Finley

Moon

Angie Finley snapped this image of the moon, and she shared her technical information: "Here's a picture I took the other night out in my front yard. I probably could have made it a little more crisp if I'd used a tripod instead of holding the camera in my hand, but I just wanted to see what the little (Canon) 20D would do under basic backyard conditions. I've never really shot the moon just by letting the camera set the exposure, because it overexposes, leaving a big glowing blob. So, I set my exposure manually, held my breath to keep it from jarring, and clicked. I tweaked this a little bit, dodging, cropping and enlarging it."
