Well done Craig :) I caught the red moon with the same annoying blur, damn my not having a shutter release cable!

I couldn't find my cable which is really frustrating.

I've just ended my observation and will process my shots tomorrow... but allready i've noticed it isn't easy to get the darkened moon sharp... at least not with my camera...

And getting an autofocus camera to focus on an obscure moon isn't exactly a walk in the park either...

Great shots BTW!

Great shots Craig, the earlier ones in particular are impressive.

The timed release on my Fuji meant that I wasn't knocking the tripod, but the lens lets it down so i don't get those lovely crater details that you do, shots posted here:
