NICE. I don't have enough of a zoom to do this. Looks like a mottled cantaloupe. ;~D

The symmetry and POV are very powerful! The way the shadow is cast helps add more movement to the image. Very cool shot!

WOW - you had a perfect day to shoot this. Maybe some elbow grease and she'll be up and running? ;)

Jackal, love the vintage cars, and those two tires in foreground are fabulous! Great perspective on this as well - oddly almost looks like the car is in a hangman's noose.

Cool angle and choice. Should be symmetrical, but doesn't come off that way. I really appreciate your eye to find this gem.

Nicely done - have not been successful myself yet in getting a moon shot like this.

Hi from the Critique Club,

This is a great shot. It is well framed, and certainly meets this challenge. I'm very impressed that you were able to freeze the moon so well, especially with such a wide angle lens (it can be difficult to focus when the moon takes up so little of the frame). Colour is good and exposure is perfect, with the pitch black background providing a great backdrop for the subject. Sharpness is good, with no haloes or obvious signs of PP. This is a magnificent crop--just a great job of using the tools you have available to pull off what for many would turn out to be a pixel-ridden or grainy result.

As many have already said, I too am surprised this scored as low as it did.

Regards,
Geoff Ball

I like how each side has different lighting with different hilights and shadows. They balance each other very well.
