A nightscape scene under a twilight "blue-hour" sky, on the Red Rock Canyon Road in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, looking west toward the sunset with the four-day-old crescent Moon setting alongside the stars of Leo to the left. Flowers are in bloom here in early June. The trees are bare as they are dead from the forest fire in September 2017. Waterton is a UNESCO World Heritage site. TECH DATA: This is a blend of three sets of exposures, for the ground, sky and Moon: - A set of six for the ground, with the focus shifted from near to far, and focus stacked in Photoshop, each 3.2-seconds at ISO 1600. - A set of five for the sky, focused to infinity and in a vertical panorama moving up the sky, each 1.3 seconds at ISO 800, and stitched in PTGui with Mercator projection. - One short 1/13-sec exposure for the Moon to preserve the crescent phase and Earthshine, replacing the overexposed Moon in the longer sky exposures. All with the RF28-70mm lens at 28mm and wide open at f/2 with the Canon R5. No tracking employed here. I shot this in part to experiment with focus stacking as a demo image. Winds prevalent in Waterton blow the foreground flowers around, making sharp foreground detail tough to acheive despite the focus stacking. FInishing touch effects added with Radiant Photo and Nik Color EFX plug-ins. Ground frames processed through Adobe DeNoise AI.
