Aside from taking a shot of the silhouette of a girl sitting at the seaside alone and talking on her phone, I looked up the sky above and thought I might be able to take a good shot of the moon still lingering and not wanting to give up her territory to the rising sun :)
Seems like the moon has some pimples :)

Nice shot! I never seen the moon that close. I seldom look at it at night in my place because my place is a bit cloudy or at times hazy that is why moon is not visible anymore. In the provinces I live in the moon seems to be small enough that you could not see the craters but yours you have captured it quite vividly.

@sunrisefan What camera did you use? Is it a phone or the specialized cameras?

It just needs a steady hand to be able to capture it with the craters :)

@sunrisefan No. I know, it isn't yet improved and has air-conditioners and malls there.

@sunrisefan I don’t have a camera. Phones can’t take something like this right?

You need to steady your camera. I took this shot with my camera being leaned on the roof of our car at the seaside.

@flapiz I guess phones can't take this kind of shot :) I was using a point-and-shoot camera for this.

@sunrisefan then it's pretty powerful to be able to capture the craters

No. The lens of my camera is not interchangeable as it's not a DSLR.

Yes, I'm the one taking all the photos that I post here. I use a Nikon Coolpix LS 830 point-and-shoot camera most of the time but sometimes, I use my Samsung S8 phone when the camera is not with me.

@sunrisefan
I see that is why you have clearer shot on the moon. It's wonderful.

And the song "fly me to the moon" would be a good fit to it :)
