Full moon rising at last light in outback Queensland.

Hi Simon, Very interesting composition along with a good eye and timing capturing the moon in that position. The light is very soft with good exposure. I like that the image is tightly framed and would only have added a bit more room on the rt. Well handled...

Hi Simon
agree with Dave about with your timing and framing, love the soft pastel colours.. I would be tempted to crop a little foreground.

Simon, I agree with Dave on this one. Nicely seen and captured and nice careful placement of the moon so as not to merge with the tree. Nice work!

Nice color, exposure, and subject. I wonder what it would look like if you had gotten lower which would have allowed you to reduce the amount of ground, and opened up the moon/sky under that nice tree arch.

Hey Simon,
Agree with all of the above........Patrick does make a very good point also on getting a touch lower for less FG.......but I still thinks this works very nicely as presented also.

Simon,

Well done all around. Here I would crop off the left and bottom to center that tree arc.

In the field, going lower would have changed perspective and yielded an alternative interpretation.
