Double-Exposing Moon Shots
I've tied the last two months during full moons to double-expose the moon onto different landscapes and haven't had any luck. What I've been doing is exposing the landscape at the required exposure - whatever it may be - and then placing the moon into the picture. But the moon always seems to just appear as a ghost image. My moon exposure is f/8 at 125 or 250 with 100 speed film. What am I doing wrong? Any advice appreciated ... thanks.

If you are exposing the landscape FIRST, the spot where your moon will later appear may be too bright. Try exposing the moon first, (f-11 at 1/125 with 100 ASA/ISO), then shoot the landscape with the moon positioned in a dark part of the sky.
