    Thank you so very much for your awesome review and high rating! I really appreciate both, especially as it?s now only paying a measly 2 member cents!

A very beautiful and atmospheric Moonlit picture with the yachts in silhouette in front of the Moon beam reflected on the sea's glistening surface, while the Moon above glows through the clouds floating overhead. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.

I really like your composition of this shot, with the majority of the image given over to the vast empty sky, it really does create a great atmosphere. The reflected moonlight is so striking, highlighting the boats. I think you handled the lighting well. I agree that the mood is set by the limited light here. A really lovely entry to the contest!

Comment from Easton Bay


This is a very captivating photo that captures the quiet serenity of a nighttime sail.
The composition is spot-on and the timing is absolutely perfect. What patience you must have to rig up a tripod and camera late at night.
The colors and reflections are super.
It is not too dark and you were right not to lighten it. Beautifully done!

This composition is a little tall but, nevertheless lovely. The moon does light up the lower portion of the composition. The title is good and appropriate. Best wishes in the contest.

What a cool capture! I really love the reflection of the light on the boats and the water. The height of the moon gives the scene dimension. Wish the moon was a little more detailed but still a great capture!
