Bull Moon Rising       ©2019 SteveBee
Panasonic DC-G9       5th place, 91 points
1/5s, f4.5, ISO 640, 28mm, Aperture Priority, Center Weighted Average, no flash
 
Post-Processing: Global adjustments to standard exposure and tone parameters to taste from raw. Noise reduction. A few local tone parameter adjustments. No multiple exposure, no sky replacement, no bracketing, nothing like that.       Extra Info: No multiple exposures or photoshop tricks -- just a huge 'moon'.

Nov 25, 2019		     If I ever see a moon that big I'm leaving town :-) In my picks.

Nov 24, 2019		     A striking image, and certainly an unusual view of a common subject. The data says 28mm lens; I assume that either that's incorrect, or there was some sort of teleconverter or supplementary lens involved (?).

Nov 24, 2019		     I'm glad you added the extra info, as I would have assumed this was enhanced in Photoshop. That moon looks huge. Great shot.

Nov 24, 2019		     I guess, it is not really the moon.

Nov 22, 2019		     I know this is an impossible image of the moon, so I Googled "huge moon" and found it!! Clever.

Nov 22, 2019		     wow! You'll have to tell me how you got that perfect exposure of the moon and yet did not underexpose the bldg. This is "our moon" taken on "our earth", right? ;-)

Nov 21, 2019		     I can't get my head around this. I hope you supply some more information as to how you got it. I would have thought that you would have had to zoom in on distant trees and buildings but 28mm is not a long lens. It is a phenomenal image worthy of a sci-fi book cover.

Nov 21, 2019		     mrsawyer: The ‘moon’ is a huge, exact replica of the real Moon. It’s a traveling art installation by a UK artist. https://my-moon.org/about/

It was suspended in a public space in downtown. I shot from an angle that placed it above the buildings like a rising moon. Durham, NC, once the home of the Bull Durham Tobacco Company, is known as the Bull City, hence 'Bull Moon Rising’.

Nov 21, 2019		     Ok, I'll bite... How was this done? The moon and trees are great. The building a bit hazy.
