Louis? Interesting shot...i like the texture
Post actions
looks very odd.. shoudlnt the bird be highlighted on the right side? It also doesnt have the same texture as the background?
Post actions
Really interesting and unique composition, you're the only one in the world with this pic, that's for sure.
Post actions
Nice catch -- I keep trying to get one of an airplane flying across the Moon, but they've either been a little too far off or I didn't have usable camera (or settings) at the time.
Post actions
Outstanding! The tangency of moon & hawk is remarkable. I'm sure you're getting hammered for "noise" but I don't care; I like it, in this image. Well seen! 7 from me.
Post actions
Interesting and creatively executed image.
Post actions
I'm having trouble viewing this image. It will not load! I'll be back to vote.

This ha the feel of art to it. Minimalistic, interesting combination of subjects and I must say that the texture of the sky really works for me. Like a painting.
Post actions
Fascinating capture. good job
Post actions
Good timing. It almost looks like the crow is perched o the moon. You stretched it a bit too much on the telephoto. The noise is pretty high. You may have tried some Noise Ninja or Neat Image to clean it up.

too much filtering for my taste
Post actions
That's a pretty cool capture. Your processing/filter makes it look like an embossed notecard.
Post actions
ehm what is that texture there for ? :) is it noise? coz I dont like it there lol :)))
Post actions
Lovely view of the bird and the moon.
Post actions
I have to say it is unique.
Post actions
Nice capture, a one in a million shot.
Post actions
I like the shot very much, but I really don't care for all the noise. Is it from over-sharpening?
Post actions
What an interesting capture and composition.
Post actions
Simple, but symbolically powerful.

Reminds me of Native American art, nice!

Just love the simplicity and peace reflected by this. The grainy texture really works.
Post actions
very interesting shot, great capture, the sky/background "noise" is distracting to me though. a little surface blur on it? imo
Post actions

I like the texture in the sky. It almost appears to be ISO noise, but if it is, you have done something very cool with it. The sharpness of the bird suggests it is an intentional treatment. Another for my faves list.
Post actions
beautiful awkward decisive moment.
Post actions
Now that's a perfect capture.
Post actions
Looks like an album cover lol. Personally I would prefer a bit more space between the moon and the bird, but I like the minimalism.
Post actions
Post actions
Not sure about the textured sky? Good capture with the moon and bird.
Post actions
minimalism that works.. 7

I really like that particular color of blue.
Post actions
I thought it was a cow that was supposed to jump over the moon :)
Post actions
this is really cool, I like the negative space, this is an image I would of made the mistake of cropping too tightly
Post actions
This is really nice, I do feel that the bird is in exactly the wrong place though, only just touching the moon but neither on it or away from it
Post actions
I like how you tried to use the texture in the border to complement the noise/texture in the pic. Interesting.

Brilliant photography! I simpy love this one
Post actions
Superb. Subject(s), composition, even the grain. Among best of show so far!
Post actions
Interesting, but the texturing is a little over the top for my tastes.
Post actions
Almost a poster for "The Crow"

Good capture and well framed. Would liked to have seen a tighter crop.
Post actions
I like this a lot, lovely and unique :)
Post actions
interesting idea, but the sky is very grainy/noisy taking away from the image.
Post actions
Interesting photo. I like the placement of the bird on the moon.
Post actions
Interesting texture and overall an interesting photo. I like it!
Post actions
The grain makes it look like an old film shot. neat photo!
Post actions
Great capture! Even this insanely thick border and square crop nicely complement the image. 10
Post actions
Very abstract and simple. I wish there wasn't so much noise.
Post actions
Post actions
Well done, very captivating, graphic like presentation.
Post actions
why? the border is taking over my computer screen. You apparently also used a filter that is making your photo look very noisy.
Post actions
If the bird wasn't touching the edge of the moon and the negative space was a bit more utilized, it'd be a stronger image.
Post actions
Seems like a far off dream, lovely, wonderfully composed.
Post actions
Neat idea, a bit to noisey for me, and I really do not like the heavy boarder around it, The silohuette or the bird is kind cool though
Post actions
wow .. whats with the color of the sky ... i would try with a smaller boarder
Post actions
The moon and the bird are strangely positioned in relation to one another. I feel that the bird should either be right on the moon, or slightly farther from the moon to give them both space to breathe.
Post actions
Aside from the texture in the sky, this is a really nice shot.
Post actions
Very cool. I love the textured feeling of the sky.
Post actions
I have no words for this - 5
Post actions
Fine timing - the bird "eyelashes" are pretty nifty and the "noise" makes a lovely texture.
Post actions
I know it wasn't easy to get the bird in the photo...but at this angle I think the moon alone would have been more impressive...did you crop this alot? The photo looks very "grainy"
Post actions
Great! Where is that texture coming from? Hope it's not done in post... may get you a DQ.
Post actions
Nice abstract. Would be great in a art gallery I think. Simple but very emotive.
Post actions
Post actions
A difficult capture I'm sure. nice sharp eagle.
Post actions
Cool shot. Not sure how you got it, but the result is great.
