Blue Moon Eclipse by Fritz Tentativa
There is something alluring about the moon that draws me to it. Last night, I was struck in awe when I saw several photos of the moon taken by Fritz. What got me gaping is the fact that he captured this using only a point and shoot camera, his Lumix ZS3 (or TZ7). Isn’t Lumix the best?

The image was not post-processed in any way –except for cropping and resizing. Amazing how the camera captured the details.
Fritz used the full zoom, 12x optical zoom to capture this at manual preset (ISO set at automatic and focusing was set to “point”).
He tweaked the following with the dial on “normal picture” mode (limited manual):
ISO Sensitivity: AutoAF: 1-point
Pre-AF: Continuous AF
Metering Mode: Spot
Intelligent Exposure: On
Stabilizer: Mode 2
Min. Shutter Speed: 1/60
I want a big frame of this in my room. So arresting.
