Stunning shot! I like the symmetrical look, with the rock and the moon right in the centre of the frame. That gives this a very balanced and peaceful look. The colour is great too, with delicate blues, oranges and pinks. Well done!

Wonderful capture Pat,

You've took the exact timing to create an astonishing effect with various colors going from a whity water created by the waves and the exposure time length to a royal blue sky containing several mixture of colors created by the sun and the clouds. The rock in the middle and the moon complete the perfect kit for a superb picture.

Well done !!!

I like the warm colors on the rock and in the clouds, contrasted with the cool water and sky.

I've been crusin' through you gallery and I must say I am trully astonished...

And this is one of the photos that I like the most...

By the way, I think I see a pattern here... do you always try to use the highest f value? I've seen some other guys' photos and most of them try to use a f value that gives the sharpest image for that lens (say f9 or around that for my camera). Do you think it is possible to get much sharper images using those f values or should I shoot, like you do, at the highest f value?

Thank you for sharing
