This is quite nice.... I've been to the bridge a few times and its ALWAYS fogged in, this past september I hardly even saw any of it.
More detail in the moon could have come from a slightly faster shutter to cut back on the light, possibly cutting back on the blown-out blended street lights lower right but maintain your obvious high f-stop in order to maintain depth of detail.that shutter speed will darken the rest of the shot but then, selectively lighten the rest of the shot in p.p. This is a really tough shot without having post processing. Good Luck here!

This shot really has all it takes for a perfect shot your settings are near perfect, I would have maybe waited momentarily until the clouds moved slightly for a slightly brighter moon and possibly then cropped it a little tighter so that the moon was maybe a little larger and taking some of the blank black portion out. then possibly allowing the moon to be closer to the "rule of thirds"( not that that is always the answer) but may have worked a little better here. I know that often when we crop tighter /closer to the subject our images seem to get "noisier" however, a little more noise may have been tolerable in order to get the impact of a larger moon! Good Luck here!

Well done Judy, Congratulations! I thought this one might be the Blue, very well done...I thought the Deer had a Alex Saberi look to it.... I guess now its a "Jutilda Look" too. Our Deer don't look like that around here. Well deserved Ribbon, and a Big thank-you for all your comments (you must hold the record)

Vista House

Great light! Well done. a tighter crop on the bottom (to take some of the road out))and the left to bring the house closer to 1/3rd would make this a spectacular shot rather than just a great one.
