FIFY.

That damn glatt. :haha:

That path only gets used by one person at a time. My path is about 6 feet wide now because traffic is so heavy.

In this day and age, maybe the best thing about that shot is that it's NOT photoshopped !

It is nice when someone plans for something and pulls it off.

Good catch.

There was a .33 second window to catch that image.

Good catch, indeed.

heh

actually, if you'd read the article, you would have known he went on in some detail about his efforts to improve the image using photoshop.

Thanks V, for your vigilance for accuracy.
It’s important to maintain standards of precision and grammar in our posts here in the Cellar.

Although I had read the article and had even gone to O’Donnell’s blog page
to see his original description of the image,
I didn’t consider that he had “photoshopped”, or created a deceptive image,
by layering the moon’s surface with AutoStakkert2 software
and/or enhanced the saturation of the image.

The setup was my Canon 70D attached to the rear cell of my Celestron 9.25″ telescope (2300mm / f10).
The shutter speed was a quick 1/1650th of a second and ISO 800 in order to freeze the ISS in motion.

I took about a second of further exposures on either side of the pass to stack the lunar surface detail
using AutoStakkert2, and the increased the saturation in post to create this colour enhanced version of the moon.
The colours on the moon relate to the chemical composition of moon geology.

OTOH, neither the article nor his blog state that he “improve[d] the image using photoshop”.

Is that there one of them there pussy willows? ;)

Suddenly, going under a tree for shade doesn't seem like such a great idea.
