It feels like I’ve posted never-ending sequels about taking the Moon’s picture through my smartphone.  I am a little behind this week, but the above picture was with the Sun already up.  I believe I set the ISO to 50 and exposure to 1/6000, perhaps even lower.  The sky was much paler than shown here.

Earlier that morning, at about 6:20 a.m., I took a very similar picture with the same camera app settings (but ISO may have been set to 200).  Because dawn was just breaking, the sky contrasted to black and you can see the Moon’s surface much better.  I cropped the image to focus on the Moon:

I am the founder and creative director of Computer Looking Up. I have been fascinated by space since childhood. My interest in technology also runs deep, rooted in fond memories of the CRT-anchored desktops my father tinkered with in the early 1980s. Professionally, I have spent over 30 years immersed in the technology sector, serving in capacities ranging from programming and IT to project management. Outside of work, my passions lie in astrophotography, astronomy, and philosophy. Through ComputerLookingUp.com, I explore these interests and aim to build a community where we can share insights—I hope you will join the conversation.
