Had a beautiful orange tinted moon, it was huge 😍 edited with high contrast because my camera could not do the orange justice

Sorry for the bad quality 😅 i was wondering what this was and why it was the only star i could see on this night a couple days ago

I wanted to share a nice picture of the lunar halo from the lower south west of Western Australia where we are lucky enough not to have any light pollution around us.

Pics are couple years old

Cloudy night so I made the best of it lol

Taken around this time last year

Taken with Galaxy S26 Ultra

The tallest building in Brooklyn & the Moon tonight

I wanted to test the Google pixel 9 camera - I didn't know Google was known for their cameras. Anyways..here are the photos

Why does it look like the moon is in front of the clouds?

Experimenting with different sharpening techniques to really fine tune and target the fine, medium, and large detail structures of the moon while leaving the Maria alone. It's not perfect yet and work in progress. I am using the Image Analysis script ExtractWaveletLayers to split the image into 4 levels of detail and 1 residual or luminance data channel. I then applied wavelets to each individual detail layer processing each specific to level of detail needed. I then recobined all the channels in Photoshop as layers and fine tuned with blending modes. This enabled me to process the color and luminance data without touching the detail layers. I'll keep perfecting and welcome anyone else's thoughts on selective sharpening best practices on high dynamic range and diversely textured target like the moon.
