Melon Moon


Yeah, yeah.  I know it's been stylized so far that it doesn't even look like a photograph anymore.  Sometimes I like to push it over the top, just because.  Also, I've been thinking lately that the moon looks like a giant melon.  This image accentuates the "meloness."



Techie Corner
I had someone ask how I did this, so I'm adding some techie notes and a progression image.

1.  out of camera - it was a foggy night 12/27/2015 and I thought it would look cool.  Didn’t turn out as good as I had hoped.
2.  Lightroom - shadow, highlight and tone adjustments.  added extra clarity to the moon.
3.  Perfect Effects 9 - I honestly don’t remember what all I did in here.  lol
4.  Cropping.

5.  Photoshop - filter > stylize > find edges
