Last month a lot of Yoors - colleague - bloggers took a photo of the Supermoon! Also on other social media there were many pictures of the moon. What you saw happen a lot is that the moon is overexposed and really comes into view like a bright lamp. While you see the moon with the nuances and shadows and craters.

In 2 weeks there will be another supermoon to see, and then it's nice if you have a few tips on hand so you can take a nice picture if you want.

Use this as a starting point, and then try whether you need to adjust the shutter speed, for example.

Photographing the moon is and remains beautiful every time. The moon is so beautiful and what good that you wrote an institution blog.

Sometimes I don't know which lens I should take the picture with. Are there also basic rules for?

A macro lens focuses at a very small distance, so you can crawl close to your subject. Tricky is that you then get a very thin layer of sharp. The nose of your beetle can be blurry, while the eye is sharp. And then you have to try to always have the eye sharp.

A zoom lens allows you to photograph something from a greater distance. Your subject will be less likely to 'flee' . Or at a wedding you can quickly get to a certain situation without having to walk there for example.

A telephoto lens (more than 70 mm) brings subjects that are even further away, close. You often get a depth of field by itself (so your subject is sharp, the layer in front and behind is blurred) This can be nice in the zoo, or with protrets if you don't want to crawl very close to your model. (what you have to do with a 50 mm lens, a real portrait lens)

A wide-angle lens does the opposite. With that you can bring more into view that would be out of the picture. In a city, it can sometimes be useful to get a building in its entirety in the picture, because it is not easy to stand further away. (

Another nice extension of the set of 12 cards I already had 👍 Question, what exactly is meant by the number of 'stops' you sometimes have to adjust? That's not quite clear to me yet, unfortunately....

A stop is 1 step at the given setting. For example, from ISO 100 to ISO 200 or vice versa. For example, if you manually set the shutter speed two stops, 2 steps higher, the camera will keep the exposure good by reducing the ISO or aperture by 2 stops. Clearly now? In the manual Exposure Triangle or the blog about it you can find out more. Otherwise still ff questions!
