Fantastic shot! Also....for any of you who either live or find yourselves visiting near the Lick Observatory, DO take the time to go visit. It’s an amazing place to tour!

The lens must have been at least 500mm in focal length. Even with that long lens, the image shown would be a 1/4 crop of the original.

In any case, it’s the tail (lens) wagging the dog (camera), which is the way it goes in photography like this.
