Mojave Moon
Moonrise in the Mojave Desert. I blended two exposures to maintain detail in the moon.
Thanks,

I like it Rudy, beautiful and simple! I think it could still be taken a little further with some selective contrast adjustments. Glad you got the moon thing down.

Agree with Steve, even the contrast boost it is a little flat. Image does follow the Kiss principle. Which we all forget sometimes.

Rudy,

Nice composition here. I agree that the contrast looks a tad flat. I really like the sky, and there is nice detail in the Moon.
