Details:
It was another beautiful clear evening to view the lovely crescent Moon which is now above Saturn in the western sky after sunset.
I was also able to capture the light from the Earth on the lunar surface with just my camera and lens setup, this is called Earthshine and it’s very interesting to see :-)
Both images were taken with a Canon 70D camera and a Tamron 18-400mm lens on a tripod, the first image was a 2 second exposure with the lens set at 70mm and ISO 800. With the Earthshine image I added a 2x converter to the Tamron lens which was set at 300mm making it a focal length of 960mm, the exposure was 1.6 seconds and ISO1600.
