Description
A photographer friend and I planned to capture the super snow moon as it rose about Shelving Rock on Lake George (NY). Being photo geeks, we used an app so figure the angle we needed to be in order for the moon to be directly above the mountain. We had to walk a ways out on the ice in 17* temperatures and patiently await the moonrise. Well, we were not able to get that "look" where the moon looks so large because the distance to the mountain was too close for the lenses we used, so the moon looked smallish.
Wanting to create that image I had in my mind, I switched to a super long lens and shot just the moon. When I got home, I composited the larger moon right over the small one in the original photo. Still, it made a neat shot.
