With rented Sigma 150-600, behind Immaculate Conception Church bell tower.
For me the tower takes away from the picture. I think above the crucifix or to the side would have been better.

Thanks for looking! I've got a few 'beside the crucifix' shots too, but this is the shot I planned. I was going for a celtic cross look (see below)
Had to shoot this twice- once with the tower in focus and once with the moon in focus, then stack.
Thanks again for your analysis, your artistic choice is probably wiser, actually! With the magic of photoshop, I'll play with it a bit and see...
I'm not sure if my artistic choice is any wiser. I just wasn't sure if the moon or the crucifix was the main focus of the shot. I consider myself an amateur. I would be interested in other opinions.

totally fake photoshop- just to get idea....
I like that much better than the original.
Great shot, Peeb! Different from all I've seen!

Thanks. Just to go a different direction, I pushed the color tone way towards the cool/blue spectrum, added some haze and darkened to give it a bit of a somber vibe. Glad you liked it!

Rented a 600mm precisely to get that shot. I love toys!
