Nice catch. Bugger the ripples in the middle of the pond

Hey Geoff. That’s a great composition. More ideas I now have for what to do during the full moon.

Thanks Rodney
I'll try to have another go at it next full moon. I have in mind a "fake". Take the moon and its reflection and then later in the night take the trees illuminated by the moon from the same camera position and make a montage. The current pic has the trees too dark and no colour.

That's very artistic, Geoff! Just watch you don't lose your long focal length license

That's exactly the technique I am working on at the moment as well. To make a composite image of the same scene but with the foreground and sky components taken on the same night but different times.
