Incredible Images Of The Rare “Super Blue Blood Moon” That I Captured Yesterday Morning

Chess Wizard, here, scroll down to the section on composition: http://www.digital-photo-secrets.com/tip/779/how-to-take-stunning-pictures-of-the-moon/ No single exposure can produce that top image. You can, however, merge multiple exposures to create a composition with that effect.

Chess Wizard, likewise you're assertions do not make you correct. Anyone here can take a close look at the figures and see there's nothing slightly different, they are the same figures in each picture. And no, the detail on the moon would be lost if you set your ISO and exposure time and aperture to capture both the moon and stars so close together as in the first image. You don't see stars in second and third photo, because you see the detail on the moons surface, and the sky is black. Adjust your settings all you want, you can't do it, go ahead and try. Maybe take a Photography101 class.

This photo (minus the father/daughter) belongs to someone else. His name is Richard Vogel. Look it up. This guy has photoshopped the father/daughter into his photos.

However they were produced, beautiful images

Must have been summer weather as well......and the hands are so strange.....were you in California?

Chess Wizard, I disagree. The pose of the people is the same in all three images, the only difference is the people were pasted in a different location of the moon in the first image. The first image is also highly edited, mostly likely a composite. There's no way the sky would appear blue, or the stars would be visible. The second photo could be real, and used to make the third photo.

The father and daughter have the exact same pose in each photo?

daveej, the pose in the first picture is slightly different than it is in the other two. It seems that the second picture was used for the composite photo.

daveej, you can disagree all you want, but it doesn't make your opinion correct. All one has to do is actually look at the people to see that they are in a slightly different pose in the first photo, than the other two. As for your completely false assumption that the stars wouldn't be visible, and the sky wouldn't be so blue, there are thousands of nighttime, full moon, starry photos, that prove you wrong. All you have to do is set a higher ISO and change your exposure time to capture both the stars and the make the sky bluer. Photography101 stuff here.
