Edge of Night
This landscape rose up before us on our way toward Lusk, Wyoming. The full moon was spectacular and when we came over a hill on the highway I saw this bluff and begged my husband to pull over so I could take a few pictures. Because it was nearly dark – of course – I needed to use my tripod and where we stopped was not exactly out of the way of traffic. My first attempt at taking the picture was foiled by the flashing hazard lights on our suburban. I thought my husband would lose it when I asked if he could please turn the lights of the truck off completely for a few seconds but he patiently complied and this was the resulting image.

Very nice moon scape. They are not easy to expose properly, you’ve managed to capture the detail and not blow it out. Good work.

Lovely moonscape….the exposure is always tricky so well done. Maybe the fence could be cropped out?? don’t know if that would change the balance of the shot tho….....
All the same, fantastic shot.

Thank you Deon… I’ve looked at the picture half a dozen times and wondered the same thing myself? I can’t decide if it adds or takes away from the picture – I’m glad you mentioned it
