Very nice Mike!
Venus looks great sitting right above the dip in the sand. Great framing

Great colours and composition Mike
And the bright sand dunes in the foreground really add to the scene. A wonderful view.

Thanks Mike!
Now which one will take pride of place in your observatory and which one in the kitchen?

Good composition Mike. Saturation is ok but I think the sky is too magenta for my taste.

Lighting foreground
Lovely shot Mike. Pardon my ignorance but did the foreground come up in the shot as is or did you shoot this earlier/moonlight?/etc? I have to give this a go soon!
