This was outside of an old church in Virginia. It looked amazing that night.

Thanks so much :w00t: This was the shot that I expected the most comments on and you are the first to say anything :hug: There was a cool church next to the cemetery, but the lighting just was not working for the shot.

Very cool. So much to look at. The moon, the spectacular lighting at the gravestone. Very nice.

Thanks a bunch :D I was not sure how it was going to turn out that night. Got there just in time before the moon went under the tree-line and the church put out the light to the left.

Wow, the sky is amazing! I have such a hard time catching the color of the sky with my camera. Especially at night. Amazing!

Thanks so much. I just barely made it on time to get the moon at the tree-line. I don't think the sky would have turned out the way it did if the moon had gone away.

Very impressive night-time photography, just the right amount of exposure to be dark and atmospheric, but still light enough to be able to read the names on the stones.. I think that the bright star above the moon is a little distracting in such an otherwise well-composed shot and could have been edited out perhaps, other than that, it's a lovely photo.

Thank you so much for the positive comments and criticism! It is awesome getting feedback like that. I am glad that you like the shot. I can see what you are saying about the star, but I don't like to edit my photos that much. Maybe adjusting the levels or colors, but I like to keep it as original as possible.
