It's a beautiful image, possibly real. If you get the right POV & use a telephoto lens, you can make the moon appear quite monstrously gigantic in camera, with no Photoshop trickery needed. I have done this myself from time to time on various Super-moons.




Interestingly, to me anyway, I use photography to explore the boundaries of the real & the surreal with my long exposure photography, but what I present is what I captured in the one frame, just edited to finish as I like or felt inspired to achieve at the moment of capture.


Digital art (or composites of images not taken at the same time & place) are not viewed as being photography by me. It may be created from photography, but it's no longer a photograph once you have digitally added in other aspects derived from other images. I still enjoy looking at them, I mean take a look at what Bert Monroy creates in Photoshop, they are stunning images, but they are not photographs any longer. The following image is one of his digital creations, but it's far from being a photograph! Read about how he created it here.
