I think he wants the salmon you just caught
I dunno....the only caption on the pic was "I hope he was using a telephoto lens!".

Telephoto lens or not, it appears the bear thought he was close enough to be part of the food chain.

Hey Ali. Is there anything in the description that explains how those colors were made/captured in that lunar shot? Different wavelengths, assorted filters, or were those the actual colors?

Here ya go.
Explanation: Our Moon doesn't really look like this. Earth's Moon, Luna, doesn't naturally show this rich texture, and its colors are more subtle. But this digital creation is based on reality. The featured image is a composite of multiple images and enhanced to bring up real surface features. The enhancements, for example, show more clearly craters that illustrate the tremendous bombardment our Moon has been through during its 4.6-billion-year history. The dark areas, called maria, have fewer craters and were once seas of molten lava. Additionally, the image colors, although based on the moon's real composition, are changed and exaggerated. Here, a blue hue indicates a region that is iron rich, while orange indicates a slight excess of aluminum. Although the Moon has shown the same side to the Earth for billions of years, modern technology is allowing humanity to learn much more about it -- and how it affects the Earth.

Thanks. It figured to be "enhanced" but in a fashion that helps to make infrared and UV visible to human eyes.

Damn, those were great. I love the deep space ones. The James Webb telescope is so much better than the Hubble.
Thanks, JT, for that link.

Webb Telescope is primarily an infra-red scope. The Hubble is both visible light and IR but nowhere near the resolution of the giant Webb. Between the two we are learning so much more about the vastness of the universe. And the photos are beyond our wildest dreams!
The beauty of computers is the ability to take the IR photos and translate them into visible light. Same with the Chandra X-ray telescope, taking X-ray views and allowing them to be visible.
Nice to be able to say that my father played a huge part in the Hubble, and because NASA would not allow him to test the mirrors before launch (and they paid for that) they realized that he knew his stuff and authorize him to run the build and test of the Chandra mirrors. After the Hubble, they would not accept the Chandra mirrors until my dad signed off on them.
You want to see cool, look up the mirrors on the Chandra X-ray telescope. Bending X-rays!!!
My dad wanted to work on the Webb mirrors but he retired before they were built and unfortunately passed away before the big one was launched.
Where are we going and why are we in this handbasket???
