Refracted Moonrise (Oct 29, 2023).jpg
This is the Moon one day after full, rising over my local prairie horizon, with atmospheric refraction flattening the disk and adding a faint green rim to the top limb. This serves to illustrate the effect of refraction distorting objects on the horizon and absorption reddening objects when they are low in the sky.
This is a single shot taken October 29, 2023 from near home in southern Alberta, with the RF70-200mm lens at 200mm on the Canon R5.
