I SHOT THE MOON !!

Challenge #7 in the SNAP !! series. Hosted by timhughes666, One eyed Bart.

Challenge has finished

Lets see a great image which makes us think , ' Wow what a great moon shot '. It doesnt have to just contain the moon but the moon must be clearly visible in your picture . The moon must be the actual moon not a picture of the moon or some other interpretation of moon . You must have from inside or outside taken a picture with the moon clearly visible in it. The highest marks should be awarded to the images where the moon REALLY makes the shot SPECIAL. I am not in control of the voting you are!

The sun had just set so there was still some colour hitting the moon and reflecting on to the water.
