Early "Supermoon" was created by Paul Evans
Hi Guys,
I got a shot at the "Supermoon" last night between the clouds but although it was OK, it was frankly unremarkable. However I was much happier with my effort the night before taken just 26.7 hours before the Moon was full. Not only were the sky conditions much better but having a terminator, the Moon was more interesting. This is a mosaic of sorts - four single shots make up the image, but only because a single image from my Meade ETX105 tube won't quite cover the Micro Four-thirds sensor on my Lumix G6 camera, so I processed the RAWs identically in Adobe ACR then merged the resulting jpgs in Autostitch. Post processing in Photoshop Elements 9.
So here it is, zoom in, scroll around and enjoy!
