No problem.

For the most part it's a single exposure with the following details:
Canon 6D
ISO 1600
Tamron 24-70mm F/2.8 @ 24mm & F/2.8
2.5 second exposure.

It is blended with a shorter exposure to retain some extra detail in the reflections, making it somewhat of a HDR. But very little is taken from that second exposure.

If I hadn't been in such a rush and so tired I would have done a better HDR to retain lunar detail. I did a few but mist a critical exposure. I do have data for another shot which would make the scene look quite surreal and other-worldly bringing out much more of Orion etc, but haven't got time to process that right now.

Processing of this was minimal, in DPP (white balance, reduction of saturation) and Photoshop (levels and noise).

Regards,
Roger.
