Thanx 4 all the comments

Looked up on the way home from the station and saw the moon ... thought "That's what I wanna shoot". This was taken from the roof of my downstairs neighbour. The lit window is from my flat. I liked having the one light on (just lucky that everyone else hadn't gotten home and turned their lights on) ... seemed to add something extra to the silhouttes and cast a tiny bit of light on my face. Contrail just happend to be there when I got out onto the roof and started shooting. Camera is on a mini tripod below the ledge I'm sitting on. Set the timer and ran around a few times in different poses (standing, sitting, holding the moon etc)

Had a lot of troubles adjusting levels (as comments have suggested). Main reason for the photo looking washed out was because my original (auto-levels with some manual adjustments) looked fine before submitting, but really dark after - you could hardly tell sky from the silhouttes. After trying a few times, I gave up and turned up the brightness and contrast which caused the moon to grow a fair bit.

Still not sure whether that's a star above my head. I thought it may have been a hot pixel, but tests afterwards have proved otherwise

great macro. To be picky, I don't like the light in the top corner - could've been cropped

The flag seems really proud to be there :) Not so sure about the vast amount of sky on the RHS.

simple but effective. Would have loved to have seen the hand holding the kite - make the viewer feel like they were holding it themselves

I love the subject of this photo. I'm not sure whether the focus is clearly on the flower. Maybe zooming in closer to fill more of the photo with the flower would make it work better for me

Looking up at a bug looking down.

great viewpoint. Almost like the bug is interested in you :) Not sure if that's stuff on your lens causing the streaks and white spots in the sky

some nice colours from the leaves and moss on the trunk. Seems a little dark to me
