      When photshopping a moon into a scene like this, one should in the very least make it plausible. On this date, May 6th, the "supermoon" set at 4:57AM @ 250.7° in the western sky, which is not the area we are looking at here. The moon was far to the left of this view when it was setting and besides that, this is not a morning shot as it should be when the full moon is setting in the west, but is also a sunset shot, a "blue hour" shot, taken 48 minutes after his "sunset" shot. Also, the moon's orientation as depicted here is actually the view that is seen when it is rising in the east. In northern latitudes, Mare Crisium, the dark area near the top, is generally at the top as we view the moon rising and will be in the lower right area when setting, this never changes. And it's just to damn big for a 12mm shot! The next shot in his photostream, a sunset taken from the same location is also shot at 12mm and the size of the sun is what you would expect to see and it is in the right location for this date, 288.9°. There's a lot of gullible people in this world, including but not limited to, the flickr blogger.

      OTOH, The Olympus OM-D E-M5 can, if I am not mistaken, take double exposures and this is possibly what we are seeing here.

      Ha! This is a comp, right?

      Ain't no way the moon can appear this large against buildings in a wide angle landscape... no matter how "super"!
      The moon would be way over exposed if the exposure was 3.6sec f/6.3 @ISO200.
      Plus, the next photo, taken less than 1 hour before this one, would make it physically impossible for the moon to appear full in that position.

      Some explanation how you achieved it would be helpful.
