Looks good. Could you provide some detail on how you did it? It looks like a combination of two images.

The erosisive effect of time on terra firma juxtaposed with the infinity of the cosmos . Could I make this image ? No!

Excellent image! It is a really beautiful scene.

Ditto on the technique. Nice combination of the light and the subjects!

**manishved** · 12-29-2019, 09:14 AM

Great pic. Love the angle. Please provide equipment and technique details. Maybe it was shot with DA 11-18???

Truly captivating image!

Very captivating indeed. Love to know how it is done.

A stunning shot

That is an amazing juxtaposition of subjects - the depths of the canyon against the depths of space.

Brilliant composition and great image!!

This is not a composite image. I shot it just as the moon was raising (or setting. I don't remember since its been a while since I shot this). Below is the original jpeg image. I processed the RAW file by reducing highlights and adding contrast to the sky. I also did some curves adjustments to the sky.

All the more impressive then!

I am impressed with the processing of the sky. Looks pretty blurry in the original from the star movement. Well done

Very well done! I've been struggling with shots with the moon in them. I haven't quite figured out how to get the right combination of exposures to not blow out around the moon or way underexpose elsewhere. Guess I need to just take more pictures to practice.
