Is it "Moonrise" or "Moonset?"
I can't tell the direction of motion from the photo.   ;)

Thanks.
I'll offer a real comment as soon as I have time to do these justice.

As others have said, I am grateful for the phlog and your notes on how the images came to be. It's a great addition to LuLa.

My error. Now fixed.

Not quite: it still says "Moonrise" on the front page.

It's a great shot and the commentary is very interesting. The phlog is an excellent idea.

Just found you blog and really like the descriptions of your process. Thanks.

FYI:

You write: 'I used f/22 to get as much depth of field as possible' but the caption reads: Pentax 645z with 300mm f/5.6 at ISO 800.

The little details do make a difference.

Confusing, I know. The lens is an f/5.6 but this shot was at f/22.

Thanks.
With the inclusion of the ISO value in the caption I assumed the other numbers also referred to exposure values.
