Great effect Lem! Makes for a very dramatic picture. #13865Lem Metro May 26, 2019
Thank you, Gary. The original was shot in sepia mode, but is a bit noisy at the long shutter speed required to capture the trees, clouds and radiating rays of the moon with any detail. A trip through PS and the use of a few filters, most notably the glowing edges filter, made what I felt was an interesting study of the barren trees, backlit by the full moon. #25746Gary H.

Thanks for the background and a look at the original,Lem! I like the way it switched from a focus on the moon to a focus on the tree branches. There's a lot more impact in the revised version. #25752Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
