    Nicely composed shot with awesome lighting on the tower. Lot of dead space on the left. You might consider a vertical 4x5 format. That would place the two objects of interest in opposing corners of the image.

    Hi John,I loved the photo at the first look ,I agree with other members about cropping though.In addition, the circle of the moon can be seen very clearly and IMO this makes the photo look artificial .But gorgeous colours ,texture and lighting

    This gives it a classical "rule of thirds" composition. I'm a bit reluctant to crop more of the building, I've tried to blend in the moon a bit but not much success.

    Truly lovely image. I think it is even more striking with the crop - which adds to its "wow" factor. Another win for the "rule" - for which I guess we never see the acronym "ROT".

    John, cropped version is nice.There is another option you may like because you are reluctant to crop the building on the left and you are right too because it is a nice image and it adds to the photo.If you would like to try cropping from right ,close to the moon,you get another nice image.The original is nice already but I think the building looks too long and that's why we suggest cropping

    Re: Moon Over the Tower

    Nice... I love the lighting and find it very fairy tale like.

    I also like the crop, and think a crop from the other side would look very nice because of the way the line of windows lead to the beautiful tower.
