What was the experience
I like to push the boundaries of my skills, to learn and advance. Throughout last week, I’ve been glaring at the moon every evening, as it was growing night after night, making various camera shots, testing out the lenses, and playing.around making a Timelapse of the moon’s voyage through the evening sky (see my Instagram account @astrowaut).
Unconsciously hopeful in preparing for the lunar eclipse on Monday morning (no chance, cloud/rain forecast and very low to the horizon … but, nothing tried, nothing gained)

Usually, to get pin-sharp lunar images you need a ‘larger’ focal length, involving the stacking of numerous images captured through a video and applying wavelets-processing.

For this image, I wanted to see how far I would get with a single image, and straightforward standard image-processing in Adobe.

How it was done
Canon EOS R, 600mm, 1/125s f11 ISO100
Processing: Lightroom(Mac)

What have I learned from this
Learning all the sophisticated processing, we tend to forget the simple, straightforward things. Always important to still know the basics … 😉

Clear Skies everybody! 🤩✨🔭

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
