Moonlight smiling Photo

Photographer’s Note

This one is "undecided" for me. I have thought about dropping in a better moon image in this picture, so you'd see more detail in the moon, but I don't know. I really like the way the branches are lit and how color starts to creep in ... and those points make me want to leave the image in this raw, unretouched state. I go back and forth on this ... any suggestions?

i wouldn't touch it. The silhouetted branches create a special athmosphere and the clouds add to this with their illuminated pattern. I mlike it.

Hi Steve
The exposure makes the clouds like a misty sea and I like the atmosphere here. Good compo, but the moon gets a bit overexposed this way.
take care, Albrecht

I like the photo the way it is! No need to change it. The silhouetted branches are perfect...the sky around this moon is so neat. Great shot!!

Take care,
Ann
