I am still trying to find my stride shooting in this particular area. It is challenging and may take the rest of my life (not being maudlin but this week marks 77 years and life is passing kinda fast). The attached is a composite of a foreground taken just at sunrise and a sky taken at night. Foreground is adjusted to simulate moonlight. Comments and/or suggestions are welcome.

I like it.
A little dark on my monitor though.

Could be just a bit brighter. Maybe was my screen??

Very nice, but dark.

Just a bit too dark. However it fits the mood and I like it.

Deep and moody. I like it and even more so since I like dark subjects. Very well composited.

Beautiful scene!
On second look, after rereading your comments, the snow is slightly too warm for moonlight.

Keep at it, Shootist. Much potential, but I take a "Dim View" of this particular image.

Great shot but far to dark on my monitor.

I love this wouldn’t change a thing. Well done

Thanks, I tend to go darker when doing PP and have come to realize it does not suit everyone. Input like yours tends to help me "re balance" my thinking.
