The brightest night in 60 something years? The supermoon lights up the land at night. I certainly don't want to miss this opportunity. Here I took one pic of the landscape with a 18 mm fast lens and combined it with a supermoon pic I took with my 500 mm lens. The pond is beautifully lit by the supermoon. The golf course is decently visible with the natural light from the moon as well. With a high ISO and somewhat long exposure the landscape is reasonably lit. But, when I do this, the moon appears too bright to show some details. Therefore, I took the moon picture with a different setting separately with a lower ISO and shorter exposure. These two pics are then combined in Photoshop. Oh yeah, I'm holding a flashlight with my mouth. (Sony a7RII, The moon: Sigma 150-500mm at 500 mm, f/5.6. 1.6 sec, ISO 50. The rest: Zeiss Batis 18mm f/2 at f/5.6, 4 sec, ISO 6400) Difficulty: 6

Here, I took series of pictures without moving my camera on a tripod. Later I combined some of those pictures in Photoshop to enjoy the progression of the red moon in one picture. (Sony a7s, Sigma 150-500mm at 500 mm with a E mount converter, f/5.6, 0.4 sec, ISO 128,000). Difficulty: 6
Bryce Canyon is one the darkest spot in the U.S. You can see the milky way with naked eyes! This makes taking pictures of stars more interesting. You get green, red, blue in the galactic center. With today's camera equipment, a shot like this is super easy....as long as you don't fall into the canyon or get lost. It's super dark and scary. Make sure to have enough battery in your flashlight.
