Re: Perigee Moon / Bald Eagle
Great shot Stan. That park is also a nice place to go in southwest Denver. Been there many times.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Perigee Moon / Bald Eagle
Yea, nice idea for someone playing with photoshop or Paint.
The eagle is drawn or copied from another illustration. I copied the pic and enlarged it and it is all solid colors and 'cartoonlike'.
Also the branch (more like a twig) it is setting on is highly out of proportion with the 'eagle'. If this were a real bird it would be about 6" tall

Re: Perigee Moon / Bald Eagle
Any balanced photograph of the moon and objects in the foreground is accomplished with two shots having different exposures.
