A full moon is seen behind the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, early Wednesday July 4, 2012. (AP Photo/Felipe Dana)

After sending these photos to the wire, they went viral and I got a lot of emails and facebook messages asking whether this was a product of photoshop or if it was real….
It’s real… and I was not the first one and certainly won’t be the last to take this shot… there are (few) times a year where it’s possible..
here’s how I know :

Moonset in dark blue / the corcovado mountain is seen at left, and Botafogo beach at right.
Here is the raw sequence:

These were taken w/ a 5D MKII @800mm
Hi
Love the Rio image.
Please can you give me a quote (£) for using the image on our website for 1 year.
Also, I would like to add a small element to it (a projected square on the statue of Christs heart?
We did this for a charity project we did for an identity for a campaign for road safety
(but we don’t have a good image of it… your image would be awesome!)
Thanks
Greg
Linda imagem Felipe, lembro que a vi alguns dias atrás num dos portais.
