Any shooting details you'd care to pass along such as camera, lens, setting, and any post processing involved. It is definitely a keeper. The rising moon really helps hold the eye, balance between the two peaks no pun intended. Are you planning to print this gem?

Wide angle lens, by the size of the moon?

This picture was taken in October 2006 with a Canon A75 (see pics). The only post processing is a very minor tweak with Photoshop 2019 to the Levels and Curves to warm the colors a bit. Pictures similar to this make me wonder why we (including me) hundreds of dollars on the latest and greatest. The saying, "Sometimes better is the worst enemy of good enough" appears to apply here. Not to say modern technology is not nice to have but, for everyday photography, lots of whistles and bells are not required. Also, this was my first digital camera.

Nice composition, Vaughan. And don't let alby worry you ... that "left one" has stood like that for very many moons.

Great capture. I have a little Canon A590 I bought back in 07/08 (?) or thereabouts, I still use mine for this and that, and it still takes a fine photo. Mine is a bit newer I guess, a whopping 8mp.
