Every time the moon becomes full up in the sky, Igris always finds a nice spot to watch her. He talks to her as if they are old friends, telling his stories and adventures...

A breath-taking shot of tonight's Full Red Moon rising over Sydney during total lunar eclipse by Ethan Callaghan. 🌕✨

This is a real photograph captured using a technique called telephoto compression (or lens compression).

Here’s how it works:

A telephoto lens (long focal length, e.g. 300mm–600mm) is used.

The photographer positions themselves far away from the subject (the Opera House, in this case).

Because of the long focal length, the Moon (which is actually quite small to the naked eye) appears much larger relative to the building in the frame.

I came across this fascinating photo on the internet and had to share with you. 🌕

These breathtaking images of the Moon were captured by Kurdish astrophotographer Darya Kawa Mirza. Known as some of the sharpest and clearest Moon photos even taken, Mirza used an advanced technique, stacking 81,000 individual photos to create a high-resolution 159.7 megapixel image. This impressive process took four days of continuous observation!

The images showcase incredible surface details, including geological featurs highlighted with enhanced colors to reveal the Moon's mineral content. What's even more amazing is that these were created without the use of artificial intelligence, giving us one of the most vivid representations of the Moon's topography.

Do you enjoy stargazing? ✨
