Supersized

So, I've been sitting on this one, ever since the night of the super moon, mainly because I didn't want to upstage everyone else's super moon photos and make them feel bad, since, you know, this is so awesome.

 

While everyone else was busy shooting the moon over to the east, as it was rising above the shipyards, I took four steps to the right, which completely changed the angle, and I was able to get the moon directly over the city. What a difference four steps makes, huh?

 

It's also practically SOOC. All I did was desaturate everything but the moon, to give it some pop. Now, I could explain why some clouds are actually going behind the moon, and what that big black cloud is in front of the moon. And why the moon is so huge and isn't casting a reflection on the water. But I won't bore you with the technical details. It's a lot of physics and math.
