Moonset Trail from Capuchos



In the image we can see an Earthsine, the trail of the Crescent Moon in the western horizon, until the Moonset, as well as many aircraft trails in the air. The image was taken in Capuchos, near the coast, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

To do the Moon Path I registered with my Canon 400D, 30 images, each one of 30 seconds exposure, starting at 20:25 and ending at 20:47 with total time of 22minutes. I setup the camera with an aperture of F-4.5, ISO 400 with a 34mm lens, the image was taken in 21-09-09. Later, I combined them all manually, in Photoshop CS3 to produce a single image with the path of the Moon

I highlight in the image the difference in color of the trail, from the start, with a white tone, to the end of the trail with an orange tone, to be very low on the horizon, and even deformed.
