pining moon

saw this last night without the camera, and went back tonight to try to catch it again. moon seemed a bit fuller tonight so one time when it was an advantage not to have the camera with me.

i'm not usually a fan of cropped images, but this seemed the right thing to do with it, nothing cropped from sides, just about half in total from top and bottom. probably needs de-noising with something or other.

terribly bad quality 300 ml lens, @ 300 mm f32 @ 1/25 sec.

PS dats, wound the contrast up to the max in RAW and dropped the shadows level down a bit too. also a high pass filter sharpen.

comment welcome.

I love it! I was initially worried about the sloping horizon but then see the tops of the trees are straight.

Great shot imho, really well done :toast:

Nicely captured Mark. Has quite a mysterious feel to it. :cool:

Nice capture Mark, crapy 300 or not, well worth viewing :toast:

I might be tempted to loose the half bush on the right frame edge, but that's the only nit for me - nice one :wavey:

Agree with Andy, but it's a great image. Quite inspiring actually. :toast:

One thing - I'd perhaps tweek the colour so there is a little bit more emphasis on cold blues. Tristan
