Gregory's Server"In this composite image I wanted to represent the position and the changing phases of the Moon above the peaks of the Cridola Group, in Italy, during a lunar month, called synodic month." -- Giorgia Hofer

 Do you think it's reasonable to post photos without a credit to the photographer? Or is manipulating your audience the objective here?  His(?) profile says, “creative analyst”. Perhaps he’s innocently asking for a creative analysis of the pic from us audiences? Who knows! 😁 @jeffowski Astronomy prof here. BEWARE. These images are not always what they’re purported to be. Les partisans de la terre globulaire veulent nous faire croire que les orbites sont elliptiques, mais regarde cette photo ! ⬆️   @Gleisplan @jeffowski (Sooo eine lange freie Phase hatte ich seit Jahren nicht mehr! ) das meinte ich nicht, aber kann ich mir gut vorstellen und verstehe den "Neid", glaube ich. Ich habe überlegt ob das Symbol für unendlich daher kommt. Hab dazu aber nichts gefunden und kenne mich auch in der Astronomie nicht so aus. @Gleisplan Aber, ich freue mich sehr über solche Aufnahmen! *Nein, das Zeichen kommt nicht dadurch.  @jeffowski Same time? The Moon rises ~50m later every day. Full Moon raises right at sunset and the next day it does it almost 1h later. Corollary: no matter what time of the day you take the pictures, some half of them won't have the Moon on it. They must have done some kind of compensation? @jeffowski I mean, the image is beautiful, kudos to the photographer, but I want to have a better idea of what am I actually looking at here. call me nerd :)  @jeffowski https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/q9dqp6/deleted_by_user/ @geobeck -- Yeah... Like I didn't know we didn't have 28 moons in the sky. Of course it is photoshopped, DUH! And I only bring the text from the source if the source provided any. If you look at the comments, you're not even the first one to mention this. You're late to the party. I suspect your description of this is imprecise not a good look when you post somethign that hoax eye has already debunked https://srilanka.factcrescendo.com/english/explainer-on-lunar-curve-photograph-by-giorgia-hofer/ @failedLyndonLaRouchite - Yeah...

I'm asking because I have been thinking of doing a similar thing (I think it actually was all full moon risings of the year). @jeffowski her own site only points to https://fineartamerica.com/featured/lunar-curve-giorgia-hofer.html with no more description :( she also has https://fineartamerica.com/featured/synodic-month-giorgia-hofer.html which is another take of the same idea @mdione -- Posted to Facebook by Ariel Gatti in 2021. @jeffowski I took that table, recorded all the moon rise dates and times and tried to get images from stellarium. first, for some reason the times didn't match. Second, it was kinda boring, having the moon just above the horizon. so Instead I took the time as midnight, took a screenshot, blended them all in one, and produced this image. Unluckily it doesn't quite look like the analemma I expected. I need a real #astrophotograpy expert here. the dates of 2023's full Moons were taken from here: https://www.timeanddate.com/moon/france/paris?month=8&year=2023 01-07 |
@jeffowski and now the venus
