I did this shot last year, and I'm often asked how these guys were able to jump so high. This is actually a composite of 3 different shots, and some messing around in Photoshop.
I work up there in that room top right. I had the shots downloaded and the final comp finished by the time the guys got upstairs thanks to a little pre-planning.
Shadows are always the dealbreaker with composites.
I couldn't do this on a sunny day as the light would have moved too much. The lighting had to be very simple so I didn't make life difficult for myself later on.
The 3 shots that made up this image are in my photostream.
Ok... This is a composite photo. Taken on blue red moon day. It was not for my camera to take this type of photo in a single image without blowing out the highlight portion. So, have to take two exposure and combine them in photoshop. I didn't have tripod then. So combining two photo of moon and having a good moon shape with proper details was not possible. I don't know when I'll post from my laptop again. My power cord for laptop has just broke down. Perhaps, the last 65% of charge remaining in my Macbook. Love <3

Moon Facts
The Moon (or Luna) is the Earth’s only natural satellite and was formed 4.6 billion years ago around some 30–50 million years after the formation of the solar system. The Moon is in synchronous rotation with Earth meaning the same side is always facing the Earth. The first unmanned mission to the Moon was in 1959 by the Soviet Lunar Program with the first manned landing being Apollo 11 in 1969.

Moon Profile
Diameter:3,475 km
Mass:7.35 × 10^22 kg (0.01 Earths)

Facts about the Moon
The dark side of the moon is a myth.
In reality both sides of the Moon see the same amount of sunlight however only one face of the Moon is ever seen from Earth. This is because the Moon rotates around on its own axis in exactly the same time it takes to orbit the Earth, meaning the same side is always facing the Earth. The side facing away from Earth has only been seen by the human eye from spacecraft.
The rise and fall of the tides on Earth is caused by the Moon.
There are two bulges in the Earth due to the gravitational pull that the Moon exerts; one on the side facing the Moon, and the other on the opposite side that faces away from the Moon, The bulges move around the oceans as the Earth rotates, causing high and low tides around the globe.
The Moon is drifting away from the Earth.
The Moon is moving approximately 3.8 cm away from our planet every year. It is estimated that it will continue to do so for around 50 billion years. By the time that happens, the Moon will be taking around 47 days to orbit the Earth instead of the current 27.3 days.
A person would weigh much less on the Moon.
The Moon has much weaker gravity than Earth, due to its smaller mass, so you would weigh about one sixth (16.5%) of your weight on Earth. This is why the lunar astronauts could leap and bound so high in the air.
The Moon has only been walked on by 12 people; all American males.
The first man to set foot on the Moon in 1969 was Neil Armstrong on the Apollo 11 mission, while the last man to walk on the Moon in 1972 was Gene Cernan on the Apollo 17 mission. Since then the Moon has only be visited by unmanned vehicles.
The Moon has no atmosphere.
This means that the surface of the Moon is unprotected from cosmic rays, meteorites and solar winds, and has huge temperature variations. The lack of atmosphere means no sound can be heard on the Moon, and the sky always appears black.
The Moon has quakes.
These are caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth. Lunar astronauts used seismographs on their visits to the Moon, and found that small moonquakes occurred several kilometres beneath the surface, causing ruptures and cracks. Scientists think the Moon has a molten core, just like Earth.
The first spacecraft to reach the Moon was Luna 1 in 1959.
This was a Soviet craft, which was launched from the USSR. It passed within 5995 km of the surface of the Moon before going into orbit around the Sun.
The Moon is the fifth largest natural satellite in the Solar System.
At 3,475 km in diameter, the Moon is much smaller than the major moons of Jupiter and Saturn. Earth is about 80 times the volume than the Moon, but both are about the same age. A prevailing theory is that the Moon was once part of the Earth, and was formed from a chunk that broke away due to a huge object colliding with Earth when it was relatively young.
The Moon will be visited by man in the near future.
NASA plans to return astronauts to the moon to set up a permanent space station. Mankind may once again walk on the moon in 2019, if all goes according to plan.
During the 1950’s the USA considered detonating a nuclear bomb on the Moon.
The secret project was during the height cold war was known as “A Study of Lunar Research Flights” or “Project A119” and meant as a show of strength at a time they were lagging behind in the space race.

Strawberry Moon
The full moon that falls in June is commonly referred to as the "Strawberry Moon"—a name that originates with Native Americans. This is because June is traditionally a time when wild strawberries are ready for harvest in North America.
"June's full moon was named to what translates in the English language as 'Strawberry Moon' by several indigenous peoples, including members of the Algonquin, Ojibwe, Dakota, and Lakota peoples, to mark the ripening of wild strawberries," Catherine Boeckmann, senior digital editor for the website of The Old Farmer's Almanac, told Newsweek.
Other Native American peoples gave different names to the June full moon, including the Blooming Moon (Anishinaabe), Green Corn Moon (Cherokee), Hoer Moon (Western Abenaki), Birth Moon (Tlingit), Egg Laying Moon or Hatching Moon (Cree).
Full moons are lunar phases that occur roughly once every month when the moon is located opposite to the sun, with the Earth in between. During a full moon, the side that faces towards our planet is fully illuminated, appearing as a perfect circle.

Composite of four images of the magnolia tree in the park near my house.
Lens: Helios 44M-4 (58mm F2.0)
I hate simple. Simple is boring. But with this picture/project I got so frustrated with its complexity, I nearly gave up.
Let's start with the bed: Shooting covers is hard, especially if all you want them to do is 'ripple' in relation to a large gust of wind. It's amazing how even a small move on a cover will appear ott as soon as you really scrutinize on your monitor, looking as if someone is actually in the bed. As a result, the first lot of cover shots were rubbish. All hopelessly dominating the frame and making the bed look scruffy. I reshot the covers the next day. And because it was at dusk, I resorted to a 30 second exposure at F5, ISO 500. To be honest, I wouldn't even be surprised if the corner of the bed which is turned up (due to a gust of wind obviously!) suddenly disappeared overnight either as I'm not entirely happy with it.
The curtains were shot with only natural light from outside. F13, and 0.5 exposure. A fan at the base provided the movement.
Agnes was lit with two strobes, one large octogon housing a Bowens GM200 at the lowest power setting, touching the ceiling. Another Bowens GM200 with grided snoot was pointing back at her head and situated behind her. This is where it gets interesting. I couldn't have got the two lights into the far left corner of the room (camera left), but they did fit neatly into the right corner. This image of Agnes is therefore horizontally flipped so that she appears with her head towards the pillow end of the bed. Settings for that shot: ISO 250, F4, 1/40th. We did try some shots of Agnes positioned the 'right way' round, and although they were fine, this was my winner for expression.
I mounted a small long step ladder on the slats under the mattress for her to rest on, and the image you see is just two shots, the secondary one, providing her hands. We used the same fan for Agnes' hair that was also used for the curtains..
I've been fortunate to have an article printed in Advanced Photographer this month in which I trumpeted the fact that you should try and keep all your settings the same for levitation pictures. I thought about that afterwards, and a little demon popped in and said 'you should try and mix strobe with natural light, it'll be fun!'. The frustration I referred to was the differing colour temperatures and lighting being all over the place. But, it can be done.
For the final image, I imported the composite back into Lightroom and used some split toning and vignetting.
Why the title? Edware 6222, extension 7 is the original number on the phone.
This is my third image with the Bakelite phone, and originally I was going to have the phone, shot many times with the 'base' on the ceiling and the receiver dropping down and turned to face her, like attacking snakes, but I decided that might clutter the frame and appear messy, so I just went for the single phone by the bed. I have another bakelite phone shot coming up. Your comments are always appreciated.
30, 60, 240, and 600 second exposure with Stellarvue 130 EDT and Canon T6i. Combined with Photoshop using layer masks to reveal faint detail.
Well, at least the geese are Canadians, but I took the photo in California. This is a composite. I shot the sunrise a couple of days ago and the geese sometime before that
This composite image made from seven frames shows the International Space Station, with a crew of seven onboard, in silhouette as it transits the Sun at roughly five miles per second, Friday, June 25, 2021, from near Nellysford, Va. Onboard are Expedition 65 NASA astronauts Megan McArthur, Mark Vande Hei, Shane Kimbrough, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Thomas Pesquet, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Akihiko Hoshide, and Roscosmos cosmonauts Pyotr Dubrov and Oleg Novitskiy. At the time of the transit, Kimbrough and Pesquet were working outside on the station’s port 6 truss to install the second ISS Roll-Out Solar Array (iROSA) on the 4B power channel.

oh my ... this is so hard. My poor brain! Saw this incredible composite from an area photographer and just had to try it ... I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING! But how cool! I might not have the brain power left for this though. I need a nap now ...
Almost forgot to say what they are! Swallow-tailed Kites of course ... 3 frame composite.

Just a few shots of Danica as she progresses intently in a little backyard sprint. Just ignore the screwed up background. It's all just for fun.
I wanted to do this in my last 365 but with interruptions from the twin and Gaylord I never really got round to it, When I saw Olga's perfect rendition of it, I thought I'd give it a go.
This is a composite from 2 images. 1 image was used 3 times. this was made for a contest on my Facebook page.
This is a tribute to Elena Andreeva who has the best lady bug pictures on Flickr. Visit her on Flickr.
Ah! Those were the days... world travel.
A composite of three photos taken within a few days of each other on my first trip to the UK in over 30 years: Bath 29-Dec-18, London 1-Jan-19, Singapore 5-Jan-19. (EXIF is for Bath.)
Another crack at a composite, the photo is mine but I've added the Panda... we don't get a lot of Pandas here
