I took a lot of pictures of the "blood super moon" - aka the lunar exclipse in May 2021.
I was on the island of Saipan and had a great view of the event but I'm disappointed with the photos.
I was using my A6000 on a tripod with a SEL55210 maxed out at 210 mm. I tried a lot of different settings and this was probably the best one. Settings for this shot were: ƒ/6.3 1/3 210mm ISO400.
Still, it never looked like the manual focus was perfect. I used the peaking focus and it seemed to be correct. Could this picture have been better or do I simply need a longer lens to get this sort of shot?

Thanks Don...There was little or no wind but and I actually was using the remote shutter app. I guess my real question is if it's possible to get a nice sharp picture of the moon with manual focus and the 210mm lens. Anyone have a good example?
