Moonrise Over Cathedral Rock · **4 Likes**

This was taken several years ago and is a crop of the original image to get the moon to appear larger. I should have thought of zooming in for a tighter shot originally, and I have no clue why I shot it at F16 when F8 would have worked fine. But there are always lessons to be learned in this hobby.

This reminds me -- there is a supermoon happening today!

Beautiful image.
If the emphasis is supposed to be on the moon I would move the frame a little higher though, showing more sky and less trees. Now it is a lovely landscape image with the moon beeing a nice addition.

Very nice, Todd. I'd love to see this place in person!

Thanks Patrick! I appreciate you pointing that out, and I decided to act on your advice and post another version. However, I decided to take it another direction as well and convert it to b&w. Let me know what you think!

I like the new framing better (I'd prefer a tad more space on the left side though) and the b&w conversion is also well-made.
The processing makes some dust on the sensor (or the rear element of the lens) visible though (right side in the sky)
