Moon and Stars

[Scottwdw]

Used telephoto compression to squeeze all the elements together. ; The extra Christmas decorations added a few more stars to the composition.

Nice rich colors work well here - that's actually a neat detail type photo - I don't think I've ever really taken notice of that type of distant closeup shot, and the extra Christmas stars add nice color and interest to the right side.

8s, f/16, ISO 200, EV +1.0, 11mm focal length, tripod

I liked how the clouds lit up with the long exposure.

I love the second one--seriously awesome. ; The first looks underexposed and the blacks/contrast look flat.

Upped the contrast and exposure a bit. It's a little better.
