A nice shot, I like the way the mountains a layered but you might want to rework the jpeg, I can see huge artifacts, specially in the sky

Great shot Eric. I really like the layered lighting here. Although the darker upper part and sky do create a somewhat erie mood, I would like to see the moon just a bit brighter. I understand the top of the range is under shadow, but the moon wouldn't be in the same light and it just seems natural that it would be a little brighter.

Just my .02. Very cool.
