Bark at the moon

Posted by

I had never heard of a MoonTubeShot. Props to @NomadWarMachine for making it a Daily Create. It’s a cool effect, and I especially like the low-tech angle. I think a moon needs context though. And what better than the three wolf moon t-shirt?

So I did a search for an image of the shirt, and just happened to find one that was uploaded to flickr by snakepliskens before he escaped from the USA. I used the elliptical marquee tool in Photoshop to select the moon and then filled it with black. The I copied my MoonTubeShot and pasted it on top and changed the blending mode to lighten, and moved it into place. I didn’t even have to scale it. It was a little too bright, so I lowered the opacity a little. In hindsight, I should have done something about the color cast to make it blend better, but hey, it works well enough.
