- Reason
- So, uh... I have insomnia. And you can probably guess from my recent activity here what I do when I have insomnia. But I will say this is a pretty strong image, I love "People at work images", and I just spent about... four, four and a half hours cleaning this one up. Think some of the marks look like scuffs, so I left those in.
Oh, I should probably point out the curves adjustment. I'm rather proud of that: Was able to recover a fair bit of detail in the bright whites, which is always nice. I'd imagine this was shot a bit on the over-exposed side as, well, frankly, film stock was calibrated for white people - but at least the photographer making the effort to work around them means that she is well-photgraphed.
Oh, and for the record, this is the poster: https://www.lpi.usra.edu/resources/mapcatalog/LEM/ - the apparent smear on the left of the moon is definitely a real lunar feature. - Articles in which this image appears
