Mudjimba Moonrise
I have had tonight diaried for about a month since we shot the SS Dicky at Moonrise.
Went scouting with Oneputt this afternoon and plans were for Craig VTR, Oneputt and I to shoot the moonrise which was due 10 mins. after sunset. So compasses in hand we looked for a spot for moonrise at 107degrees azimuth and some kind of foreground interest. All good plans went astray for Oneputt and Craig VTR so set off with my wife and fulfilled the objective Here's one of the shots. Comments please.  Bob

Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
WOW- that may not be terribly critical or helpful, but what a gorgeous image- the colours are so soothing, the velvet ocean is mesmerising- what a stunner. Maybe the sand bottom right is a slight distraction- what do others think?
Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
This is amazing...very magical! how long was the exposure?

Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
I would like to see a version with the moon toned down just a tad. The colouration around the dge is also a little odd looking.
I find the rest of the image just lovely to behold. Regards Colin

Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
It's not possible. This is a moonlight shot and the correct exposure for the moon itself is the same as daytime midday.
(Edit) - I suppose I should add the caveat - It's not possible unless you combine two images or perhaps have an HDR covering more than 20 stops.
Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
I don't mind the shadow at the bottom right. I just wonder why the bottom part of the image is so much brighter - artificial light from the shore colour corrected back to standard daylight? I wonder whether it might work better with a slower gradation.
(Note to people who haven't done this sort of exposure - there is no colour caste with moonlight, it's just reflected light from the sun. We see it as blue due to the way the rods and cones in our eyes operate). Regards, Murray
Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
It can't be very long because the moon hasn't moved much. I think it's moved a little. My guess would be 30 seconds.

Re: Mudjimba Moonrise
Well exposed, composed and moody. Very nice shot.
