🌑 A solitary beacon in the vast darkness. ✨
Taking advantage of the crisp December air to capture the waxing gibbous in all its glory. This shot was a true test of stability—captured handheld at full zoom (200mm) with a slow shutter of 1/40s. No tripod, just a steady hand and a bit of editing magic to cut through the atmospheric glow and reveal the crater details on the terminator line.

What a stunning capture! 🌕✨bHandheld at 200mm with a 1/40s shutter is no small feat, you nailed the steadiness and the details beautifully. The crater definition along the terminator looks amazing, and the cool December air definitely worked in your favor. Portugal’s night sky never disappoints, and you brought out its magic perfectly. Incredible work! 👏📸
