NASA Chief Photographer Bill Ingalls explains why the Moon is one of the most timeless subjects for photographers around the world:

I realized that perhaps the reason so many people are interested in photographing the sun and the Moon, and indeed astrophotography, is that it is a shared experience for everyone on Earth; Peaceful Common Wonders.

If you’re looking to tap into Ingalls’ knowledge to capture a memorable photo, there are a few things to keep in mind:

  • While photographing the Moon alone can be fun, try incorporating the Moon into your local landscape during sunrise and sunset, or find a fun way to integrate people, animals, etc. into your photo.
  • As with any photography, take notes on what worked, didn’t, and why.
  • Most importantly, there are no rules; enjoy. Always be honest in the description of the picture. If you use multiple images to make a single image, mention it when you share.
