About the Image(s)

Equipment:Canon EOS R5, Canon EF 24-105 mm lens, Canon EF to RF adaptor, Sturdy tripod, wired remote trigger.
Location: from the Shores of Fort Erie, Ontario - View of Buffalo, NY across the Niagara River. October 6th, 2025 evening.
Set-up: 73 mm, ISO 1000, f/9
Combo of 4 images: 1/25 sec - EV -5, 1/8 sec - EV -3.33, 2/5 sec - EV -1.67, and 1.3 sec - EV 0
Post-processing: "Natural" HDR combination of images, slight cropping, noise reduction, and light adjustments using ON1 Photo Raw.

This image was captured during the "blue" hour. The full Harvest Moon was really bright (even if partly in the clouds) in comparison with the Niagara River. I elected to use the "Natural" HDR technique to avoid "burning" pixels on the moon while preserving details in the shadows.
