Composite of the Harvest Moonlit Mt. Katahdin (shot the same night) and the various stages of the full Lunar Eclipse. I had to deal with intense mist and low lying  ground fog which kept soaking both the lenses and the photographer. I figured out that the pond was still warm, but the air temps were in the upper 30's. I didn't pick the best spot to shoot this because of the ground fog and mist, but it was the only location with Mt. Katahdin in the FG that I could find. Moderator: Feel free to move if it is better in the Digital Forum.

D3S, 24mm Sigma F1.4 Art for landscape, 150-600mm Sigma S for moons. Various exposures for moons ranging from 1/125th -.6/10ths of a second.

Nice composite of a lovely scene! Despite the "dampness" you did very well.

What would you think abut removing a little from the bottom and left?

Looks great! Don't see that the fog impaired this at all.

[moved to Photo and Digital Art -- composite shot with two different lenses]

Lovely composite Mark -- well worth the discomfort of shooting in the damp and cold!
