Technical Approach:

Preparation of Source Images

• Capture Three Photos:
  • Full Moon: Take a clear photograph of the full moon.
  • Two Waning Moons: Photograph the waning moon twice.
    • Overexposed Waning Moon: For one of the waning moon images, apply an exposure compensation of +3 levels to create an overexposed effect, which will enhance the halo effect around the moon.
