Description

Thought I would try my hand an color saturation of the full moon to represent the iron ore on parts of the surface (red orange) and Titanium (blue gray) in the form of  mineral ilmenite, a compound containing iron, titanium, and oxygen. 

With my ASI 294, the full moon just stretches out of frame, so I used Microsoft ICE to stitch the panels together. 

Definitely a fun experimental project!
