Mauna Kea Moonrise
A nearly full moon rises next to Gemini Observatory. The University of Hawaii 88-inch Telescope is on the right, and three of the eight Submillimeter Array dishes are at the bottom. The tourists who come to the summit for sunset are visible on the ridge near UH88.
The moon is not Photoshopped in or otherwise adjusted. This photo is the result of lots of experimentation in The Photographers Ephemeris (app.photoephemeris.com/), a few months of waiting for the proper alignment, a good amount of hiking, and a 300mm focal length + some cropping.
