  Thanks, Lynne, Megan, RC, Judyann, Cesar and Boyet. This is a composite of three images, the moon, the hill, and my Dad which was combined in PS. I darkened the hill and added the color to the sky.

Ron Jones
  Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate your nice comments.
Sarah, This is a composite.
The moon is not difficult to shoot. You need a long lens (I used a 350mm) and a sturdy tripod. If you're using film you can use the sunny 16 rule. If you're shooting digital just start somewhere and go up and down (you're not waisting film.)

  It's a composite of three images, each on their own layer. The foreground, the figure and the moon.
