This is a composite of five images of the moon obtained over five minutes as it rose behind the bell tower of Heublein Tower on March 24, 2024. These were obtained, each focused on the moon, at 800mm, f11, 1/800sec, ISO 640 with a Nikon D780 and a Sigma 150-600 Contemporary zoom with a 1.4 TLC, all on a tripod. The images were combined using layers and layer masks in Photoshop. The diagonal is the approximate course followed by the moon.
