    Some really great images so far, I like the palm trees from grimace, and Palouse Sunset from Roaddog52 a lot. Many other great ones, though.

    One shot in particular that I have taken seems to fit this theme, so I'll stick with this just to say I tried.

    driving home one evening, this statuary caught my eye standing out against the amber sky. if i'd blinked i would have missed it, hidden from the road behind a fast food restaurant. two exposures - one for the statue, one for the moon to keep them both in focus.

    Aaron, I'll see your "WOW" and raise you a "gasp." I am truly humbled and inspired by the talent here.

    And thanks guys for your kind comments - especially after being frustrated with my slow progress lately, I needed some encouragement!
