| I
have photographed many scenes that included the moon, but
for the most part the prevailing illumination came from the
evening sky. This image I created from a double exposure of
an Echinacea flower and the nearly-full moon a few minutes
past midnight on a nearly-windless July night. The sole illumination
is from the moon, which was at my back when I photographed
the flower portion of the image. To shoot the moon I merely
swung the tripod around and recomposed to place the moon where
I wanted it in the shot. |
