Very creative photo
Good center of interest./
attention to detail 5
focus 6
Like the setting of the photo. The black is very deep bringing out the detail of the moon.
Thanks for sharing Lou

A very nice capture here of the moon. This is different and rather sharp for what I guess was a hand held photo. Nice work on your part!

This is an interesting shot. The waxing moon makes it an interesting viewing. Fine composition, and very good light makes this first rate.Good effort.

A great photo of the moon with a original story. The focus is good and the B/W color is good. The presentation is well chosen.

A great photo of the moon. Sharpness is good with individual craters perfectly visible. Obviously a good clear night. Best of luck with the contest.
