Description

At nightfall, I always cast a glance at the sky, and what was my surprise to see the moon lying down just after the sun. It was a luminous crescent, illuminated by the sun, and one saw very well the whole lunar disc visible thanks to the reflection of light Earth.

Not having the time to take out the big artillery, I only took the Samyang 135 mm lens mounted on the Canon 80D, all on a rudimentary tripod.

For a single photo that I finally selected for processing and publishing here, I had to do about fifty shoots, with various settings.

ISO 800 - 2.5s
