A misty moonlit evening at Maskinonge Pond at Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada, with the Moon and Jupiter in the sky. Rain earlier that day made the air very humid adding the mist over the water this evening, This is a single exposure with the Nikon D750 and Sigma 24mm lens. I shot this during one of my nightscapes workshops, during the 2019 Waterton Wildflower Festival.
The 4-day-old waxing crescent Moon on April 8, 2019 in a blend of short and long exposures to bring out the faint Earthshine on the dark side of the Moon and deep blue twilight sky while retaining details in the bright sunlit crescent. This is with the 105mm Traveler refractor and 2X AP Barlow lens for an effective focal length of 1200mm at f/12, and with the cropped-frame Canon 60Da at ISO 400, in a blend of 7 exposures from 1/30 second to 2 seconds, blended with luminosity masks from ADP Pro3 extension panel in Photoshop.
The waxing 2-day-old crescent Moon setting over the front range of the Rocky Mountains in southern Alberta, as seen from the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory, April 6, 2019. Earthshine is visible on the night side of the Moon. This is an HDR blend of 5 bracketed exposures with the 200mm lens at f/2.8 and Sony a7III at ISO800. Blended with ACR. The exposure range captures the dark foreground without blowing out the bright sky and Moon. I applied luminosity masks for local adjustments to sky and ground. I added a mild Orton glow effect to the ground and clouds for artistic effect.
