Nope! :-P Ask him - he- https://www.flickr.com/photos/smirv/...9jcGR2ZLrwvEDA Those are *great* photos. But returning to the moon and statue, am I really the only person who thinks photographs should normally document reality? We all understand perfectly how the advertising photographer needs to employ all sorts of fakery to get just the right "image" for the client, and we don't believe adverts anyway. But when you have an apparently dramatic image like the original, or even more so ones which show an airliner silhouetted against the moon or the setting sun, I feel cheated if it is just been made from two boring stock images in photoshop, rather than having been captured by a great skill and perhaps just a little bit of good luck. There's even a magnificent ISS transit that I believe to be genuine which fills me with awe. |

But returning to the moon and statue, am I really the only person who thinks photographs should normally document reality? No. However, some folks feel that it is OK to demonstrate their artistic interpretations with things like composites. Then sometimes one can use post processing to tweak reality, just a tad. https://adobe.ly/2FFXv3d -- Regards, Savageduck |

I've recently discovered that the 'problem' stems from Facebook's sharing permissions - one can only share images from a Public group (mine is 'private' - although new members will be welcomed, I'm sure!). Please look here to find the image. If you cannot reach it there, let me know and I'll ask permission to copy it. https://www.facebook.com/Smirv https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater -- David B. |

It's an extraordinary depth of focus for a single shot. Also, the perspective of the image of the horse gives the impression of being taken reasonably close up with a lens which should have had the moon at half the size (or less) that it is in the photograph. My guess is Photoshop. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |
