Full Moon Trouble

I managed to get some good photos of the harvest moon on the rise behind Scituate Light.  The issue looked to be in doubt as there was a thin layer of clouds however it did not disappoint and the color of the moon was amazing!  I took a bunch of photos maybe close to 50!  But what i thought were a bunch of good photos only had a handful that actually came out ok.  The problem was the telephoto lens is maybe to much of a monster for its own good!  When you are doing longer exposure shoots in the evenings any little movement of the camera even with a timed shutter release will leave the photo horrible with a blur to it.  Hence tonight a few things went wrong I think obviously movement, second there was a little wind which might have caused this movement even with a tripod the weight and extension of the camera is just a lot.  I am not very happy at all right now but you live and learn and next time out when I use the telephoto lens on a tripod I will have to figure out how to guard against this! Below is one of the better ones that came out I have a few more but I just thought I would put this one out!
