The supermoon of August 10, 2014 rising behind Mt. Rundle and Banff townsite, as shot from the Mt. Norquay viewpoint looking south over the valley. This is an HDR high dynamic range stack of 8 exposures to capture the great range in brightness from the sky around the Moon (the Moon itself is inevitably overexposed) to the dark ground and trees. I’ve turned up the HDR intensity a bit more than natural to bring out cloud structure but that does give the image an HDR look. I shot this at the end of a 700-frame time-lapse, with the 16-35mm lens and Canon 6D. HDR processed with Photomatix Pro.
Twilight and moonlight on Bow Lake, Banff National Park, Alberta, on August 9, 2014. Light from the nearly Full Moon lights the landscape. This is a single exposure with the 16-35mm lens and Canon 6D, for 20 seconds at ISO 1600, taken in preparation for a time-lapse sequence.
The nearly Full Moon (0ne day before Full) rising at the end of Bow Lake, with purple flowers (Purple Saxifrage?) in the foreground. Taken August 9, 2014. This is an HDR High Dynamic Range stack of 5 exposures at 2/3rds stop intervals, with the Canon 16-35mm lens and Canon 6D at ISO 400.
