Decided I liked mine well enough to clean it up. The revision is more what I "saw" when I framed the capture. Sometimes the fact that the camera sees more than the eye is a good thing . . . in this case and for me - not so much.

It's a subtle but effective revision. Definitely warms those cyans and glues the the composition together even better. Nice touch! |

Nikki you are absolutely right. These days everything is too crisp and too saturated and too evenly processed |

Our 14-year-old granddaughter had a science assignment over Thanksgiving weekend. She was to go out and look at the night sky, with someone else, and then report what she noticed. Since she was going to be visiting us for a couple of days after the holiday, she asked if I would do it with her. I said sure . . . but then looked ahead at the weather forecast and suggested maybe she go sooner as it was supposed to snow and then get very cold. But of course that didn't happen, so Saturday night found us out in the country, freezing our butts off (chill factor was well below 0), and staring up at an overcast sky - AKA nothing! We did catch brief glimpses of the moon and were looking that direction when suddenly she exclaimed, "There's the moon - it's moving! Really fast! I mean it's moving really, really fast!!" I explained that yes, the moon was moving, but it was actually the moving clouds that were creating that illusion. "So there's wind up there, too!" She took a video on her phone and I managed to get this picture, now cropped square for you, which I printed for her to turn in with her assignment :) Go, Grandma!

Nice -- it's really hard to get a picture of the Moon where you can see detail and also the clouds. One my own favorites is of that type, partly because I wanted to go with the lines in the poem "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes (later set to music by Phil Ochs):The wind was a torrent of darkness among the dusky trees
The Moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas |

After the deluge (over 4 inches of rain in one day), months before the frost... This will make sense shortly!
Eta: Deluge quantified.
The poor plant was beaten down by the rain plus water spilling from the gutter.
