It was too high when this was shot to have an object in front of it for contrast, but it was still a nice full moon. (5 years and 2539 days ago)

Looks like there is an outer glow around the centered image

I think it's probably caused by the HDR, however IMHO looks nice.
I tried to get the moon close to the horizon, but got side tracked and it was almost behind the horizon. It was such a big beautiful orange moon. Got up early the next morning to get it. But the moon was still very high in the sky at 6am, and by the time it set, it was daylight. guess I will have to wait till next year. Did get some photos very similar to yours, but my moon is turned the other way (180 degrees rotation) LOL
Yeah, I was disappointed because it was very cloudy near our horizon so you couldn't get a good shot making it look huge. Oh well. And, unfortunately, the next "Super Moon" isn't for 17 years.
I'm glad there was no object in front of it. It would have detracted from the wonderful clarity of the shot. This is stunning and beautiful just as it is. Excellent capture!
Thank you. I just wanted an object because it was that "super moon" which was about 15% larger than normal.
Howdie stranger!
