>Question:
>
>How can I photograph the moon? I've tried a few times,
>but it always comes out looking like a big flame in the sky.
>
>Answer:
>
>I remember shooting football games for the high school paper,
>and before the game started we would shoot the moon with our
>long telephoto lenses. In our pictures the moon looked like a
>glowing headlight until one of my friends suggested that we set
>our exposures as if it were daytime. He was right. It worked.
>
>Think about it: The sunlight bouncing off the moon's surface is
>the same as the sunlight hitting the Earth during the day. So
>the correct exposure for a full moon is roughly the same as a
>daytime exposure. The moon looks like "a big flame in the sky"
>in your pictures because they're overexposed.
>
>Also, your camera might be automatically switching over to a
>nighttime setting. Make sure it's in manual mode, and use a
>daytime exposure, and your next moon shot should be a success.
