Very nice. Download is superb. The barns in the foreground ad a very nice composition to the photo well done. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Beautiful Phil. Is that the shadow of a mountain in the left background or a cloud?

I love photos of the moon low in the sky, when you can also catch some of the landscape. This is very appealing!
What would you think about cropping some off the right side, making more of a square, bringing moon out of center(but keeping that first tree closest to the moon)?

Thank you for lovely and constructive comments ... yes, those are mountains in the background (I guess they part of the same range that Mount Baker (WA) is ... there was not a single cloud in the sky last night ... I picked up the caption (Waning gibbous) from a search on the internet - http://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/canada/vancouver ... they said it's waning gibbous - I am not to clued up on the technicalities and moon naming conventions :)
cheers Phil

Gave the crop idea a bit of thought - used a slightly different shot and cropped per your suggestion - aesthetically it is quite pleasing :)
I love these colors - they are straight out of camera with only some sharpening ... = me howling at the moon

Beautiful picture; the crop placing the moon off center really perfects it.
