I actually went out to shoot the moon rising above the Madison skyline again, but I had miscalculated and the moon rose too far to the north (left) to fit in the same field of view with either my 200 or 400mm lenses. So I shot a few for fun and decided to submit this one since it was an exposure of exactly 2 seconds. This was a RAW file that I processed into two exposures, one a bit under and one a bit over, and then layered them together in PS in order to bring out details of the overexposed bright capitol dome while not losing fainter details of the surrounding city lights. I don't think this will do well since there is way too much black in the pic, but we'll see.

I like the top and bottom thirds but find the central bancd of empty spage a little distracting. However you have certainly shown an approach for the 2 secs.
