Ghost moon


Dracion1

Recommended Posts

Last night I was taking some photographs of the moon for my astronomy coursework, however I overexposed most of my photos :(. When I uploaded the photos to my PC I noticed a strange 'ghost moon' had appeared. Any ideas how this could have happened? I'm curious to know why.

EDIT: Turns out it was the UV filter I had on the end of the longer lens I was using. It isn't mars or venus or anything like that ;)

Well, it is certainly too big to be Venus.

 

I don't know why this happened. Maybe you burnt something on your negative by the previous pics of moon?

So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

 

RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.

Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.

Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.

I strike out every other week.

Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.

Randox pretty much stays rational.

Etc, etc

I was using my dad's digital Nikon D80 Camera with a wide angle lens, I don't think it has a filter though I'm not entirely sure. I don't think it was burnt in, I'd taken other pictures with the camera before I took that one and I haven't noticed anything. I even had the camera on a tripod outside, so it isn't caused by windows or anything. I'm going to take some more pictures this evening so I'll see if the camera lens has a filter on it or not.

 

 

 

EDIT: Turns out the lens had a UV filter on it. I removed it, and I haven't got any 'ghosts' on my new pictures. Still, I suppose it looked quite cool :P
