The sharpest 'real-life' moon picture is no less than the satellite
By taking and composing images from countless different frames, the American photographer has created the most authentic Moon image in the world.
According to Andrew McCarthy, an astrophysicist living in California, starting from the waning moon, it took him two weeks to complete this outstanding work.
He cleverly took advantage of the moment when the Moon had the largest area of light, combined with the mysterious beauty of the boundary of the two light - dark areas, helping the image to show each sharp line on the surface. The moon to its fullest, making them appear alive as if existing right in front of the viewer.
Sharp moon to every detail.
McCarthy named the work 'All Terminator' , sharing that the photo was like a 'monster' in his project. He wrote on his Instagram account @cosmic_background: 'The moon like this looks a bit funny, also because it is an utopia. After 2 weeks of capturing images of the Moon since the waning moon, I chose the highest-contrast picture frame, right in front of the Moon's aurora where the darkness extends, aligns and blends them together to show diverse textures on the surface '.
The photographer used the technique of collage and arrangement to create this work.

'The process is tiring because the Moon is not aligned every day, so I have to map the image through a 3D sphere and adjust it to perfectly match each other,' he continued. McCarthy said he would be willing to create more similar works if received positive feedback.
