Description

As the earth's shadow recedes, the sky is transformed from cool to warm. An earlier image rescanned and reinterpreted. The sky is lighter while more detail is preserved in the moon. I cloned out distracting points of light on the dark landscape. Tripod-mounted Nikon N65 with Nikkor ED 70-300mm lens. Two images stitched for the panorama. New 24-bit scans performed with Epson 4870 and imported into Photoshop.
