    Love it... Nice balance in the composition. I'm thinking that this isn't York, Maine. ;)

    Nice Wayne. The second one works best for me. Seems more natural and less movement with the moon.

    Melody, Taz and Len thanks for taking the time comment. I like the second one better as well. This is my first real outing with the Nikkor 24-70mm/2.8 lens.

    Beautiful nighttime work...not always easy to pull off. The expanded sky in the second shot makes it my pick.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Very nice!

    Sometime you might want to add a frame in which you expose for the moon detail and add that in. That's not a criticism of these, just a thought.

    Don, thanks for the kind comment and the advice. I will be the first to admit that the blown out moon in both of these shots was my own personal disappointment with the set. Your suggestion is excellent and I will do just that with the next night moon pic.

    You shouldn't be disappointed. These are quite good.

    PS: unless you expose at the right time in the blue hour, you can't get the moon and everything else exposed right in one shot. Combining two or more exposures is the only solution.
