Thanks' This photo was shot on film and is whats called a double exposure. That means the shutter is opened twice without winding the film. Once to capture the doves and once to capture the moon. There no second chances. This is as difficult as it gets because the birds are moving fast and its a split second reaction. I tried to create a special effect as art.

I'm familiar with that lost art! I've never tried one. My dad was a film guy. I never could actually get it developed. Something about time and money at the same time. Makes me cringe to think about money ever being that tight. All the same, the digital age did come rescue me, somewhat. Taking photos just isn't my first thought.
So, the answer is yes to both. You did blend the images and you were there at that unique moment.
It's just not Photoshop!
One of the things that kept me from assuming Photoshop is the unique lighting on the doves. Double exposure yes. Photoshop, maybe, if the artist thought to try for that effect.
I'm assuming this is one of those days when the moon is out doing the day.
It is super impressive that the moon ended up in a near center space that was void of doves.
Congratulations on accomplishing this beautiful piece of art!
The moon exposure was taken at night and your right about the birds spacing around the moon. I think it was perfection.
