Urban Moonrise, 2020.

This is an IR photo, made in afternoon light with a 1000nm filter and the Phase One Achromatic back. 1000nm is a fairly long IR wavelength, rendering a soft, surreal look. (IR photos are usually captured around 750-800nm). I used the Rodenstock 50mm HR-Digaron, which leaves the moon small in the frame but still recognizable.
This is (of course) a nod to Ansel Adams' "Moonrise, Hernandez, NM". But Adams' 1941 photo was made just after sunset, in the visible spectrum. See https://www.moma.org/collection/works/53904
@mattblaze@federate.social Got any tribute photos to O. Winston Link? (I'll accept diesel engines instead of steam locomotives.)
@SteveBellovin@mastodon.lawprofs.org Sadly, the drive-in movie theater that was the location for “Hotshot, Eastbound” no longer exists or I’d try.
