Love the colors and sharpness of this shot - and wonderful composition.

Jimbo · 11-18-2008, 07:59 AM

Very well done. I did I similar shot a month or so a go. The snow on the tree really helps the shot. JIMBO

Well done... That is a great shot! Makes me want to go outside at night to take pictures... but it's getting pretty cold (9 degrees F).

jeffkpotter · 11-18-2008, 08:37 AM

Wow! I love it. Perfect title too.

Thanks again for commenting everyone so far.
YJD, yeah it's pretty freezing here too.

Lovely shot, Joni. Pleasing composition

Excellent shot and great capture. Really nice composition and color. You framed the scene just right. (I don't mean with the frame you put it in but the overall way the shot was taken. )

vizjerei · 11-19-2008, 09:56 AM

love the color and mood.

Your work just continues to impress...

I tend to reach for the moon to see how close I can get with lenses and adaptors.... how many great photos have I missed in the process...

Thank you

Excellent shot, one of the best Moon shots I've seen.

When I try to photograph the Moon, I always end up with a completely black surrounding. How did you manage to expose properly for the Moon, the sky and the tree? Did you shoot at dusk, when the ambiant light is still somewhat intense? I'd like to know more about your technique.

Thanks!

This was shot shortly after sunrise so it was bright enough to take this kind of photo.
