While trying to take some closeups of the eclipse on Sunday I also set up my other camera to take a series of shots with the same framing. I wanted to make a composite shot like this and it turned out reasonably well. I randomly picked 5 minute intervals and that turned out to be a really good choice because it spaced the moon out perfectly. Then I merged a dozen shots together with some creative adjustments to arrive at this final result. Hope you like it!

Hey, thanks Randy!
Yes, I do like this , Steve. Well done. I don’t know how to do composites, and I changed my camera around .
Thanks Jane. It’s not too hard actually, once you learn a few tricks combining several images together using layers.
