Battle of the Moon(s)

on Wednesday, April 28, 2021
The image displays the angular size difference between a "super" moon and a "micro" moon. The micro moon is the Cold Moon of 2020 (captured on 30th December 2020) and the super moon is the Pink Moon of 2021 (captured on 27th April 2021). The super moon gets almost 10% bigger in the night sky due to its closer approach to Earth.

85% of 280 images stacked via Pipp and Autostakkert for each moon and processed together in Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop.

Gear: Nikon D5600, Sigma 150-600c

Location: Kolkata, India

Date: 30th December 2020 and 27th April 2021
