Moonrise over Mount Lorne
Fact or Photoshop? Neither, actually. I was playing with the multiple exposure feature of my new camera. The main exposure was shot at a focal length of about 90 mm, then I zoomed to 250 mm to add the exposure with the moon which results in its larger than life proportion. Though I underexposed the moon shot and used a polarizer set for maximum darkening of the sky, it still added a blue cast to the foreground and washed out contrast so I did take the image into Photoshop to correct these issues.
