I've really grown to appreciate minimal landscape photography recently, and had this concept in my head for awhile! I really love the cheshire moon on the amazing gradients of the post-Arizona sunsets.
Not 100% in camera capture, as the moon was moved about 15 degrees for composition sake.
Took 3 vertical exposures at 400mm, .5 sec, f/10, ISO 400. Only ended up using 1 full frame, with about 25% of the other frames on the top and bottom.

Dosnt bother me you moved the moon , its an incredible photo , well done

Much appreciated man! Always feel to be honest about such things :)

My father, a physicist, explained "Earrth Shine" to e as a child. I've chased that one for years. Beautifully done. And yes, I move the moon around to improve composition as well

It's an amazing phenomenon once you understand whats happening! Thank you very much for the compliment
