1995 – Favorite photos of the year

This is an imperfect attempt at a double exposure on a slide of a nice sunset in the west and the moon in another part of the sky, taken perhaps a couple of hours later.

You have to frame the moon in the viewfinder where you think it will complement the sunset that’s already on the film. There are a few different reasons why this doesn’t work, but the main one is that the Earth’s clouds are behind the moon.

 

 

 

Although it’s much duller, this one works a bit better because it’s somewhat more believable, cloud-wise.

 

 

 

From my site:

I first saw the plane when it was at the bottom of the frame. I thought it might hit the moon, so I ran inside, got my camera, took test readings, and got this just in time.

Two things in my favor were the setting sun, which lit up the usually-unseen plane, and a lack of wind that kept the exhaust plumes intact.

Here’s where my concert stop-action training came in handy.

If you look real close, the ball is actually on the fingertips of at least 3 people.
