 What an incredible moon!

Full frame helped me here since I stopped down to f/10 to get the flare, and jacked up the ISO to 1600.

I see this is an extreme editing challenge, so I wonder if I'm not wasting this shot in this challenge. O well, let's see.

Completely unappreiated. Should have finished well ahead of me.

Probably got screwed because some silly folks saw a sun, not a moon..

Super shot Philip. Love this. This is truly special and you stuck your neck out in the expert editing with a natural shot from the camera. Should have done better than 10th

One of my top picks in this challenge... this deserves more than just a top 10 in my opinion!

is this a night into day shot? the starry sky makes this so surreal looking.

Wow, must be a popular spot! Where is it? I saw it in Under the Full Moon. But here it's almost Under the Sun with the arms begging for something invisible to us

too bad you couldn't have entered this in the day taken at night. i would have given a 10 for that.

in this challenge i give an 8, only because it doesn't look like a moon shot.

great anyway.

Would also have worked for the night as day! (Not voting)
