    Yes I can!
    Not sure what software you're using, but if you work in PS, here are a couple of 'wonders' of mine...
    I wonder if you have enough latitude in the moon to bring down it's brightness, to show detail in it's face. (I'm assuming that's the moon. :o) )
    I wonder if you also have enough latitude to do the same with the license plate and bumper of the car in front.
    Then I wonder how cool the image would look if the power and telephone lines could get cloned out to resolve some of that chaos. To me, that would be the toughest edits, because cloning the sky across straight lines may be a tough sell.

    Good luck.

    Oh yeah, I can relate! I agree with the comment about trying to bring out the face of the moon, if you can. The overhead wires really don't bother me because they add to the chaos you're depicting. Nice shot!

    Thanks! It's the moon, but was a compromise "seat of the pants" shot from my truck so I don't have the sharpness or DOF to really bring out the face. It really was just a "wow: moment and I always have a camera with me. so I shot it. I may play with the rest as this is SOOC with a little crop and, sky tweak and exposure bump.

    I like this, and I don't mind the wires. It's definitely on theme...I feel stressed just looking at it!

    Thanks! AF & Burst. It is hard to frame, but I was in traffic for a while and had a chance to chimp several times.

    I like this and agree with previous comments. I don't mind the wires, but if you have a re-shoot I might prefer it without. GP

    To get the road sign, I will have to get the wires. They are all over the place. I may try to PP them out.
