Moonrise at Dawn

Comment:
The lack of noise, the perfect gradient of the waining light "dawn/dusk" make this a sleeper shot. Photographic skills & post processing are combined here in a photo that is exquistely well done ... additionaly the lack of over sharpening for detail on the branches exhibit a restraint that pays benefit by not being over processed. My only complaint (9 instead of 10) is that I prefer color to black and white.

For me the eye itself is more beautiful and prominant than the reflection.
