Photographer’s Note

Shot of the Pahayokee Overlook, Everglades National Park. I used a grad filter to bring out the lunar details...

The colours & composition here are great, as is your viewpoint. I like how you've got the moon off towards one corner, and the darkening sky effect from the filter.

The photo here is a bit small though, you should try & use the maximum 800 pixel length & 200kb file size, I think this shot is definitely worth reposting in a slightly larger format.

A nice effect, Michael--a bit other-worldly. The horizon and footpath are well placed. Very rich gold color! One small suggestion--putting your signature in the image, instead of the frame, is distracting and mars the feel of the shadows. But overall it's very nice. Regards, Ken.

Hello Michael,
Superb light on the foreground making also nice colors.
Nice framing with the moon even if I would prefer the wooden path horizontal
