My "abstract" obviously is not a fake.  Who would fake that?

dismissed by others.


They were mumbling about the sunset, saying it would be possible to get
this light and this color, and one guy bragged about making his living from 
the twilight photographs. - But until almost the end, nobody thought that it 
would be non-physical to have red sunset colors (backlit) next to the moon, 
that is opposite to the sun during the full (or almost full) moon.

(Just in case it is not obvious: the moon is full when the sun, which is
the source of the light is on the opposite site, i.e. behind you, as you are 
looking at the moon. And I haven't seen a sunset when the eastern portion of 
the sky is red like this.)


What's funny is that I googled images for moon and sunset, - to see how my 
physics-based argument holds against photos. To my surprise, I've found some 
images where the moon is superimposed over the sunset (or sunrise) sky. And 
those are clearly fake.

Here is just one example (referenced as a photo by Castillo, -
the link to the original photo is dead):
http://planetearthandhumanity.blogspot.com/2013/07/our-moon-at-sunset.html

That's clearly a fake!

While, it is beyond any doubt to me that the original photo in question could 
not be done in a single shot, - I was curious if the angular sizes (the size 
of the rock or tree vs. the size of the moon) are compatible to be in the 
same shot in general. I have a feeling, - they are not.
(You'd have to be too far away from the rock and the tree to see them at this 
small angular size, - to be able to photograph them with this much of 
detail.)

But I am too lazy to do a careful geometrical consideration at the moment.

But I have a big physics(astronomy)-based concern about yet another Peter 
Lik's photo... -I 'll send a separate message about that.

Thanks for looking and thanks for your comments, Igor.

We had a bit of a Kona breeze that evening, so there was a bit of moisture
in the air, possibly enhanced by the lawn sprinkler the development runs at
night.

Did you get anything interesting?

It's an interesting effect - with colors.

I wonder why you'd get this dispersion. You aren't in a cold area where 
one might get tiny water crystals in the air or anything like that...

And you were not shooting through a plastic airplane window with a
polarizer. Ghm...

Dan, what did you do to you Tamron 70-300? Is it so beaten up that
colorful bruisings show up in photos? ;-)

Funny enough, - I was also trying to shoot it (without much of advanced 
preparation) with K-5 IIs, and one of the lenses I tried was the same

Tamron 70-300/4-5.6.

Cheers,

Igor
