Is that just the Samsung smart camera composite?
The Samsung moon actually just makes up a plausible looking moon, which is hilarious given that the moon essentially doesn't change, so they could have just overlayed reference images. Instead, you get features on the moon that don't exist.
Huh? Nah it's an old Canon 1300D. I had to hold the tripod still with sandbags while it took.
My comment was mostly sarcasm. https://www.theverge.com/2023/3/13/23637401/samsung-fake-moon-photos-ai-galaxy-s21-s23-ultra
Cool that you used a "real" camera to do it. Just the experience of doing that is satisfying even if the photos don't come out great.
Then we appreciate the Nasa images more
