I took a photo of the moon the other night myself, first one i have tried in a long long time and it actually turned out alright. I havent got it uploaded as of yet to my laptop but i will get it uploaded.
I shot on full manual mode, with manual focus, I used a medium-fast shutter speed and a low Aperature, and a low ISO. I got a very clear photo of the moon which i thought was great :) i used a 300mm lens on my Canon so it got me a good shot of the moon, but when i put it on my desktop (not my laptop) i cropped it and it came into a much clearer view.
