    It's not a bad shot. Think of day light photography when shooting the moon. I typically use a higher shutter speed around 400, a f9 aperture, and adjust the ISO accordingly which is usually around 600-800.

    I might try that next time, thanks. I keep the ISo low and resolution high if there is a lot of cropping to be done, that way I keep maximum detail. I id ruin a couple of shots however due to camera shake despite being mounted on a tripod and had to resort to the timer.

    oh so close with a moon name too, Tycho, nice image, you right to go with base iso as when you are on a tripod you can dial in the exposure with the shutter speed
    raising the ƒ stop up a bit for the lenses / cameras sharpest sweet spot would be good too,

    an addition would be to use 4000k white balance if you camera allows you to adjust that
    nice start though
