    Great shot! Why the yellow tint? Was it low in the sky?

    Would like to see your gear shooted. Tried to capture the Moon too, but never was happy with the results. Yours is great!
    Casual shooter...

    Thanks FMarek and embender.

    FMarek: The setup was hand held, 5D MKII, 100-400L with 2x extender racked to 800mm, manual focus, f/11, 1/160, iso 100.

    embender: It was sort of low but I shot with an adjusted white balance and let it lean toward a warmer tone in PP.
