Beautiful Ken, I guess you had no choice but to venture into landscape! You might try cropping off some empty space from the right.

Yep, beautiful. Way to take a walk on the wild side and go landscape.

This looks great, especially with the subtly lit, thin clouds around the moon. I could see cropping a bit off the left to move the moon further from center, but I like the negative space on the right.

This sight would turn anyone into a landscape photographer. (Would also be fantastic with some large mammal silhouette in the scene, of course. :D )
You could hear many different cropping suggestions (I was thinking of removing a bit from the top), and I am sure they would all look nice, but this one works fine.

Thanks everybody for your comments, they are much appreciated. An elephant would have been nice, but then it would not be here

Lovely light and color. the Moon looks great. I agree with the suggestion to crop a bit from the right: The two large trees and the Moon are the stars of the show, here.
