DON’T BE FOOLED

This is a fake ….. but, in my imagination, this was the picture I set out to capture last Monday when I went to take shots of the super moon.

Why is it a fake:
1. I captured the moon on the previous day when the sky was clear and there was not much difference from Monday’s moon;
2. I cropped the shot and super-imposed the shiny sea from a daylight picture I had taken some days earlier and which I processed in Photoshop and Picasa
3. I again super-imposed the picture of the pleasure boat which I had taken while waiting for the super moon, onto the resulting picture
4. I applied a soft vignette over all.

Next time round I will not take the trouble to go and take shots of any super moon but stay at home and compose it myself, haha.

Many thanks for viewing and for the comments and fav's on yesterday's picture.
you get a fav from me for fabulous faffing hahahaha well done!
