Full Moon With Halo over Mount Hood Oregon, Sunday Morning 1:30 AM PDT from Jonsrud Point, Sandy Oregon
http://www.markseibold.com
Copyright: Mark Seibold Moon- Large Perigee Full Moon Photographed With Halo March 20th 2011 Jonsrud Point Sandy Oregon
A twelve photo panorama was produced with a Sony NEX5 and 16mm f/2.8 lens. Assembled with 'Hug-In' photo stitching program. The Perigee Full Moon on Sunday morning at 1:30 AM PDT, March 20th 2011 from Jonsrud Point in Sandy Oregon.
Sony NEX5, 16mm f/2.8 lens, twelve 15 sec, f/4 twelve exposures in two rows of six exposures at ISO 200 were assembled with 'Hug-In' panorama-stitching. *Foreground light with fog in the landscape and the natural moon surface contrast showing lunar seas was retained through Photoshop Layering.
The star at the middle region of the sky is Arcturas, Vega is at lower left rising in the northeast; Spica, the first magnitude alpha star in the constellation Virgo is cradled between the foreground trees with Saturn just to the Moon's left.

It looks manipulated to me.
Looks like you manipulated a bigger Moon into the halo-picture. The diameter of the Moon is half a degree, the halo is a 22 degree halo (radius). The Perigee Moon was big - but not that big.
