I've been thinking of not worrying about foreground on the day - concentrate on the Moon. Shoot various possible foregrounds under different conditions - say twilight or dawn - before and after - and photoshop the best foreground into a sequence of Moon shots. Sadly, my ideas exceed my technology and abilities

(I saw Melbourne city skyline silhouetted against dawn some weeks ago and thought that would be great - with first image of the Moon peeking from behind the top left corner of a building. Alternatively, beautiful big old rocks as per Al's thread:- http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/s...ad.php?t=22534 - plenty of those in nearby country.)

(Of course, for the final image, magnify the Moon many many times against the foreground, relative to normal size )
