Please forgive me, I moved the moon

I have watched the nest for months and the great event finally occurred, she took flight. The last GBH to leave the nest. I was so focused on her maiden flight I did not see the gibbious moon until I looked away. Hand holding a BIF at 560 is all encompassing for me, only after she landed in the tree did I take my eye away. Then I noticed the moon and imagination replaced vision with less than optimum results. Photo focus stacking is really the realm of image creation not image capture but that is a very hazy gray line. The capture of the image in the minds' eye is often different from the image first presented as captured by the eye of the camera. Once started on the path of image creation where does one stop.

Very engaging! Where does one stop? At whichever rest area you find cleanest, safest and most comfortable.
It's your image. Do what you like to it.
I'm sure the Gulf Coast will forgive you eventually 😇

Nice.
(How would I know, other than if you said "looking North"?
Even then, it would not matter to me.

)Thanks for looking Longshadow, the first comment most people ask me "did you photo shop it". Very knowledgeable guess, I was looking north east.

Beautiful result! As long as the GBH doesn't care, why should you?
I think the GBH was just trying to figure out "what next" and did not see me move the moon UTMike. I am glad you found the result pleasing.

Haha. I was being funny. I wouldn't know if it was North, but if you told me, the moon couldn't be in that position. I think it looks great. I'm one of those people who view images on their own merit, not how they were created.

Beautiful. The moon in the shot is catchy the fledgling GBH is wonderful.

Could you move the moon all the way over to the right of the image and let the bird be looking at it?

Kind of what you requested tomcat, might be lower than what you had in mind. I have visual conflict with the same height.

Could you try a little higher? My initial thinking was that he would be looking straight at the moon, but it make create that visual conflict. What if you made it a horizontal shot?
