SES9 Falcon9 by SpaceX, hard light blend
Like many of my colleagues, I'm waiting for news regarding the date for the next #SES9 rocket launch attempt, and as I'm waiting I'm fiddling with pictures from the last two non-launches.
So with a nod to Trevor Mahlmann (who first pointed out that the shots could, essentially, be combined) and Lloyd Behrendt who is the master of the artistic photo, I present here a merge of 3 images taken last night of the #Falcon9. The first was taken at 5:50pm in bright sunlight, the second was taken at 6:08pm (as the sun was setting) and the last was taken at 7:14pm (in darkness). I aligned the images (as layers) in Photoshop and then blended the layers using the "hard light" mode, and this is the result.
