I Would Like Your Opinion. Thanks.

I looked at your other images, and based on that, I would say delete it. Your Eclipse already captures this subject much better. This really does not add anything, and, for me, it takes away from your collection as a whole.

If you DID do something different, compositionally, then I might suggest a crop similar to Eclipse. But given the small size of the moon's disc in this image, and given how many moon images there are with big, impressive, CLEAR appearances, I would say ditch this one, shoot the moon again, but more TELESCOPIC (closer).

You are competing with NASA and amateur expert astronomy photographers, whenever you shoot night sky objects.

... one opinion, of course.

Blurry and lots of digital noise. Dump it. As Robert said it takes away from the rest of your owrk.

I really like it considering what it is.

You are trying to sell images to the buying public that really doesn't care about photographic or artistic perfection. They see what they like and they buy it.

I can't tell you how many images my images have been told they would never sell and FAA would never print them. Thing is they had already sold, printed and delivered and they are still selling.

You only have 22 images; I would suggest that lack of images is much bigger problem than having one or two that are not perfection, in other people's opinion. You are only trying to get into people's living room or den or office, not the Met or the Louvre.

I would never let anyone tell me what to sell or what not to sell. You put it up there; you must have had positive feelings for it at the time. I would stick with your instinct.


Another bigger problem is the lack of descriptions with any piazzas to them. Think like a journalist when adding descriptions. The 5 W’s: Who What When Where and Why. Try to work as many search terms into the W’s as possible.

And have some faith in the buying public. They do not run off just because they do not like every single image equally well. And they are not going to NOT buy image B just because they do not like image A. They are going to buy what they like.

Thank you Floyd! That is exactly how I feel. Not everyone is going to like every single one of my photos. I am ok with that because everyone has their own opinion of what they like. I am simply taking photos out of enjoyment.

is this ok for what? the last time it was for something in particular. to me it looks fuzzy and doesn't look sharp. its just the moon, there is no story.
