Very, very nice.  Somewhat surreal feel.

Very effective - an excellent photograph overall. If it were mine, I wouldn't hesitate to "move" the moon to be lower in the horizon. Being at the top may have been the way it was, but it also looks like you were "late to the party" and trying to resume something of it.

Great clouds, textures and beach.

Another fine image that is worth looking at for a few minutes.

Tho I can see where Terry is coming from about the moon, I really like it way up there. At first look of the image, it is a purely abstract wash of colors till your eyes climb up and suddenly, there is REALITY!!   You realize that it isn't an abstract after all.

This is one of the few image posted on here that the first thing I said upon seeing it was:" WOW!!"

Thanks!!!

Thanks very much guys for your kind words.
I really like this image personally. Initially, I though about moving the moon down a little or just deleted it which is very easy to do in PS but decided not to proceed with those for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it is what it is. Secondly, the location of the moon is unusual from typical image and I like it the more I look at it :)

I wouldn't touch it. I see Terry's point, but the photo is grand as is. I think it would look great on a large canvas with simple lighting.

I like it. Great cloud motion without too much moon motion. Nice color in the water too.

My first thought was the moon was too high but the replies convinced me to take another look and noe I like it where it is.
