In short here are the details:
Camera: Canon 7DM2â €
Lens: Canon Kit 55-250 f/3.5-5.6â €

Moon was shot separate and composited with foreground. Foreground settings wereâ €
Focal Length: 65mmâ €
Shutter Speed: 1/60â €
Aperture: f/8â €
ISO: 1600â €
â €

Took 17 images of the moon, applied white balance and sharpening adjustments then cropped all but the moon from the frame in Lightroom, exported all 17 to TIFF, then stacked them using Regstax 6 (free software) to make them sharper (overcome softness of kit Canon kit lens).â €
Added the moon back into the foreground scene by matching the size exactly with how it looked in the foreground shot where it was overexposed in Photoshop.â €
