The old barn near home in southern Alberta at sunset, June 11, 2014, with the Moon one day before full rising in the southeast. The blue shadow of the Earth and pink Belt of Venus are visible below the Moon on the horizon. This was shot as part of a time-lapse dolly sequence using the Canon 60Da and 10-22mm lens.
The pioneer McDougall Memorial United Church near Morley, Alberta, under the light of the Full Moon, on frame behind the gravestone of George McDougall who built this church in 1875 to minister to the native Cree. This is one frame from a 300-frame motion-control time-lapse movie. It's a 10-second exposure at ISO 1600 with the Canon 6D and 16-35mm lens at f/4.
The waxing crescent Moon, just over a day old, in the evening spring sky as seen from New Mexico, near Silver City, April 30, 2014. The sky was quite dark by the time I took this set, revealing the stars as well as the illuminated Earthshine on the dark side of the Moon. Aldebaran and the Hyades are at left, and the Pleiades at right of the Moon. The sky was also quite hazy from wind-borne dust earlier in the day. In this case, headlights from an approaching car lit the trees. Very handy! This is a high dynamic range stack of 6 images at 2/3 stop intervals from 2 to 20 seconds at f/2.8 and ISO 800 with the 35mm lens and Canon 6D. Stacked in Photoshop HDR Pro and tone mapped in Adobe Camera Raw 32 bit mode.
