•  Support The size doesn't match entirely and quality is not perfect, but this is such a novel and refreshing idea that I'll give it a pass. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 04:47, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
•  Info Gallery fixed. I see that you are back and there has been some changes to nominations while you were gone. The Bot is now sorting the FPs so you have to add the gallery section too. I have fixed that for you now, please remember this in the future. --Cart (talk) 09:20, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
•  Support per KoH. – @Donatas Dabravolskas: The left photo (with moon) shows a dust spot, and probably another (less visible) one right of it; please see the image note; I would suggest to remove the spots. --Aristeas (talk) 10:08, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

•  Support Nice set. Some imperfections but such a good idea that it absolutely has to be FP. Cmao20 (talk) 14:45, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment I couldn't believe the size of the moon was real, so I investigated the position of the moon on the date the photo was taken and YES!! absolutely possible. --Wilfredor (talk) 12:38, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

• easy trick, longer focal = bigger moon. - Benh (talk) 15:18, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

• What focal lens do you recommend me for making giant moons for nikon f / dx? --Wilfredor (talk) 19:08, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

• Well I would say between 300 and 600mm on FF (a 100-400mm on APS-C should be great). But to make a really informed choice, consider that the size of the moon is mostly dependent on the focal length alone (and same goes for the sun and any very far object). Then to get the element on the foreground (here the statue of the Chris) the right size is the tricky part which requires u finding the right spot at the right distance. So, just check on Flickr or other how the moon renders for given focal lengths, and you'll know. - Benh (talk) 21:58, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
