Optimizing moon rise pics

BTW: I don’t think dynamic range in this shot is an issue. If I look at the RAW histogram I see that you have plenty of room to spare (+/- 2 stops to full clipping) and could have pushed this one +/- 1 1/3 stop while taking the shot. You do have to keep that 2/3 stop margin due to the prominent reds.

Anyway: Nice shot and I’m rather glad to see one that hasn’t got blown highlights :grin:
