I started this a long time ago, finally got back to it.

Great job on the moon Tim. Man! I got the chills looking at this pic. Good one!

Cool effect Tim. I think there would be more pronounced shadows on the mountains.

I really like that - thanks for posting it.

Thanks everyone, Gary, your right, didn't notice till you pointed it out...back to the drawing board for this one.....

...back to the drawing board for this one.....

It's not photorealistic, but it has an ephemeral quality that it could easily lose if you try and "improve" it.

Hi pauland,
I agree I can screw it up, I've done that before, I never try for photorealistic, but I think with a little more contrast between the light and shadow side of the mountains, will help this image. I'll post when I can get back to it.
Thanks for your encouragement. Tim
