Not really to my taste, TBH. Double exposure or post processed composite?


I don't know. I'll ask the photographer and let you know.

Those are *great* photos. But returning to the moon and statue, am I
really the only person who thinks photographs should normally document
reality? We all understand perfectly how the advertising photographer
needs to employ all sorts of fakery to get just the right "image" for
the client, and we don't believe adverts anyway. But when you have an
apparently dramatic image like the original, or even more so ones which
show an airliner silhouetted against the moon or the setting sun, I feel
cheated if it is just been made from two boring stock images in
photoshop, rather than having been captured by a great skill and perhaps
just a little bit of good luck. There's even a magnificent ISS transit
that I believe to be genuine which fills me with awe.

No.
However, some folks feel that it is OK to demonstrate their artistic
interpretations with things like composites.

Then sometimes one can use post processing to tweak reality, just a tad.

Hi Ken

Thanks for letting me know. I've recently discovered that the 'problem'
stems from Facebook's sharing permissions - one can only share images
from a Public group (mine is 'private' - although new members will be
welcomed, I'm sure!).

Please look here to find the image. If you cannot reach it there, let me
know and I'll ask permission to copy it.

They look good to me, but I'm not a photographer!

To me, that looks like overkill.

He obviously has lots of patience!

It's an extraordinary depth of focus for a single shot. Also, the
perspective of the image of the horse gives the impression of being
taken reasonably close up with a lens which should have had the moon
at half the size (or less) that it is in the photograph. My guess is
Photoshop.
