For this photo, I anticipated that the bright moon was going to be covered with a thin layer of clouds and because it was cloudy and stormy weather, I didn't have to wait to long.

The original image had to much of an orange glow for my taste and because I think this photo should be mainly be about light, I applied some desaturation during post-processing.

What I personaly like most about this photo is the symbolism that can be seen/discovered on it.

Not sure what is trying to be said/captured/portrayed in this image. The moon in cloud part is nice, but the rest confuses this viewer.

Interesting shot. It raises lots of questions for me and kept me looking for several minutes. It's apparently a cloudy night with the nearly full moon obscured. What are the people doing and why do so many of them apparently have flashlights? The photo lacks the "wow" factor but is intriguing nonetheless.

Nice! A very unusual photo. The muted colors add to the mood.

This is a great shot. Definitely unique. I'm glad I didn't take this photo. I'd have a hell of a tough time figuring out the proper crop. There's just so many possibilities. Kudos on a job well done. 7.

Very errie, reminds me of Roswell, New Mexico (at least, what I picture in my head when I think about Roswell.)
