I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.
The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

Taken at night, yes. Long exposures, maybe 2 outta 4. Panoramas, no.......post processing needs works. You've got the enthusiasm which is very good. Keep trying. Read, browse the internet, talk to any photographer who takes the time to talk to you.
Wow. I am just so grateful to receive your wisdom.
I like the first two. They have an almost sketch like quality to them that make them very interesting to look at... Kind of makes me think of the music video for "Take on Me" by A-ha.
The third one lacks anything of much interest (no clear subject), but it's well exposed
The last one has some really trippy cloud movements going on, which makes it look almost like a painting. However, I think the highlights on the light streaks were dropped to low. I see this a lot, so maybe I'm the only one who thinks it looks bad.
Overall, pretty good stuff. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Jordan McChesney
How did you get that cloud effect?
