Astrophotography combines astronomy and photography to reveal details and colors in the universe that we can't see with the naked eye.
To get this image of the moon, I stacked about 40 photos using specialized software.
This process makes it possible to capture a huge amount of detail on its surface.
A mineral moon is a representation in which subtle color variations present in the original image are intensified.
These tones are linked to different minerals and materials that make up the lunar surface.
In this tutorial, in collaboration with Adobe, I'm going to show you how to transform an astronomical photograph into a more expressive and colorful version using adjustment layers, masks, blending modes, and brushes in Photoshop.
Starting with a high-resolution image, we're going to reveal colors that normally remain hidden and create a composition with greater visual impact.
If you're passionate about photography, space, and digital editing, I invite you to discover how science and creativity can come together in a single image.
