This was purely an exercise on editing for me. I will not take credit for the idea. Al Magnus is the genius who created this. Here is the link to The original and his website.

Al Magnus Original

I dont have a proper lens for the moon. Hence the quality of my moon is CRAP! I am missing the clouds. Not a single cloud in the sky the last couple of days.

Never could match the quality of the original! Maybe one day :)

So I sit here with a moral dilemma over this image. I am thinking of pulling the image out of voting. First issue is that it is scoring well even if the moon is crap. I like to think that my standards are higher than that and I should have not used it at all and to have it score hi just isn't right.
Then the second issue is that it is not my image. I am having a problem with that. If the challenge called for a replica or a famous photo, then no problem.
What do I do?

Great creativity, but the quality of the moon kills this a little bit for me... I'd love to give you an 8 or a 9, but with that moon, I just can't do it.

I love this a very nice tribute. My only complaint, I wish the moon had been slightly more in focus.

very very nicely manipulated photo... but i think the moon is a little bit blurry, while the house at tops is sharp.. 9/10
