I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.
The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

That's pretty cool, I like it a bunch. I think there's still some things to pursue. Perhaps trying different colors as well as possibly doing the colored side views in black & white so you don't have the spill of purple and blue on her shoulder ?? Just a thought... But I still think it's very good as I could easily see this on a "Psychology Today" magazine cover or similar. :)
it was a first time that I've done photos with mixed light, but for me the colors were important. I didn't think about making it in b&w till now :) And also didn't think about psychological part of this photo :D Thanks for the comment
I personally like the color spill on the shoulders. The photo seems well-executed ... no issues with it, technically. It does seem to invoke a "psychology text book cover stock photo" feeling.
It's a good premise ... do more, please.
Thank you for your feedback. It was the first time, but not the last :)
very well done.
