no Nac ....moon is never that big...even with trick photography its impossible to make moon 10 times larger then original..and there are lots of video and tutorial how to take those pics

Few years back, I thought that it's possible. Later when I started to learn about image manipulation and the tricks involved to taking photographs, I thought it's not possible. But later I started to think it's pretty much possible and I started seeing images which are very much convincing enough that my thought is right...

This is one among them...

That was the reason I wanted someone with a big lens to give it a shot. It's super easy to do this with an image manipulation software (heck, i've seen people fake this in paint :p). But a couple of sites tell you that it's about relative size so using a large focal length lens with the subject very far away you can get these results straight out of the camera.

that pic is very easy to take it seems...but would I want to point my lens towards sun for long time?? NO ;)

I will try this but on cloudy day when sun is soft ....also Nac most of Sun shots on that photostream are not good at all ...

this shot *www.flickr.com/photos/anupamrajeev/9719536792/
its shot just at 200mm ...impossible.. he have cropped the pic a lot...and photoshopped ...look at the line around the sun ...maybe he have pasted the sun there :D

srkmish both shots are good ...post the pics from flickr or some photo sharing sites ...



Guys I tried the big moon experiment with a small ceramic hut ...My main Idea was to put that hut as a silhouette inside the moon.
But the result was--- since the moon was on infinite distance the closer object thats my ceramic house was soo much out of focus that it disappered..
Also If I focus on the house the moon becomes total out of focus and just a round white out of focus light...

Soo to achive this I need a subject almost as small which can be fit inside the moon and it should be at least 50 meter away from my lens to focus on infinity.

so your object needs to be at a distance greater than the so called hyperfocal distance of the lens. There are online calculators for finding out this distance. It'll give you some idea.

I guess you can use that ceramic hut with the moon if you keep the hut really far away. Like across the room or even on your neighbor's roof, while you focus from yours :)

Plus silhouette is ok, but you can use a phone led or torch to light up the hut to give it some detail. Try both if you can

Wasn't carrying any tripod and there was no place to put down the camera, so it had to be a handheld shot. Will try again with a tripod. BTW my gorillapod magnetic can hold my kit lens but not my very heavy prime one, so I might need to upgrade that too
