I like this shot Morris. Great technique with the flash, it is just the right brightness. I did a similar shot as this with the lunar eclipse last October through a tree =)

Crazy compositions. How'd you get the moon and leaves in the same frame? Very creative! Correct exposure too . . . wow.

That is a great shot of the moon and the added foliage sure sets the time of season it was taken Morris. There is just enough light on the leaves to not detract from the overall image IMO. I might like to see the moon a little less centered is all. Maybe a hint of noise reduction on the leaves?

Great natural framing, technically a marvelous shot!
Karl

Thank you Karl,
I played with the moon off center and liked it better where it is. The noise on the leaves is because I could not get enough light on them with the flash as I had to stop down so much for DOF and I did not think of upping the ISO as I rushed as the moon moves fast when it's low in the sky. I brightened them in Photoshop and did apply some noise reduction yet did not want to go too far. I felt this level of noise looked better than more blur.

If unique is what you seek...you've succeeded! What a marvelous shot Morris. So cool!
Eric

Thank you Eric,
Unique is what gets noticed and published. When I saw the moon come up and saw those colorful leaves I asked my self what would the moon look like between them. I'd already broken down my gear and was walking out of the park and stopped and set up. As I experimented with different settings I had to keep moving as the moon was rising so fast.

Very well done Morris. I think you spend more time outside the box than in ~ Ron

Thank you Ron,
Probably not yet the outside the box work gets noticed

That is wonderful Morris ! I never would have thought about illuminating the leaves with flash !

Birdie

Thank you Roberta,
I considered light painting them yet was concerned the moon was moving too fast and would blur

Love this one, great vision and execution. It could be a frame out of a Tim Burton movie.

As others have stated, the natural framing is just right.

Thanks for posting

Thank you Don,
The frame of color was the concept that I executed on

Morris, this is lovely. Your experimentation has paid off big.

Thank you George,
I knew I could do this. It was a matter of figuring out the settings while the moon came up fast

Thank you Matt,
Adding some terrain to moon shots goes a long way. I'd love to see your eclipse photo

Thank you Gordon,
I placed my tripod mounted camera under a tree lining up the hole for the leaves and then kept moving the tripod as the moon came up as I worked the settings

Thank you Steve,
This was one of the prettiest moments I remember. The moon was also reflected in the lake amid the reflection of glowing trees caused by the post sunset glow.

Thank you Herb,
The noise is less noticeable smaller or printed. I could have been more aggressive with the Noise Reduction.
