Nice Rustic shot, though maybe a tad more colour saturation, and contrast, would bring it out more? Though I'm no expert. ;-)
Thanks for your printer comments, much appreciated, will give the Epson and Ilford a go.

Hi Roger!
For straightening buildings I use MicrografX Picture Publisher. Unfortunately it is no longer available as Corel bought them out and they now have incorporated this program into there Corel Sraw Suite.

What software did you use to do the rotation?
I've tried over and over in PS but the straightening tool doesn't allow specifying the angle..it makes you do it by drawing a line. For subtle correction that method is almost impossible.
Thanks,
Roger

Lovely skyline wiht a great reflection in such calm waters. I would rotate the photo 1.5 degrees CW to straighten the buildings some. (see attached)
Thanks for sharing this photo.

Hi Roger . . . by "Trick the camera" what I mean is the camera is working to bring the black into correct exposure and I think even spot metering may not solve the overexposure of the moon issue. I generally switch to 100% manual and underexpose in RAW format (you can adjust up to two f/stops during conversion). Using the same RAW file, save a copy overexposing the moon to get the details from the other elements and then composite, yes. I hope this helps, but I have always favored seeing details on the moon . . . not seeing a moon as bright as a solar disk since that feels a tad unreal. Since it's digital you can freely (and cheaply) experiment. Also, the Nikon you're using supports bracketing. Check your manual and you can bracket the exposure setting so that each shot also includes one more and one less exposed.
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Thanks for the advice. By "trick the camera" do you mean doing something like spot metering to get the moon's correct exposure and then another shot letting the camera expose for the dark sky, and then compositing the two?
Thanks again,
Roger

This is a decent shot and nice sky but the moon is overexposed, losing all details. To get the details, you have to trick your camera. On any auto setting on the Nikon, and on Aperture or Shutter Priority, the camera adjusts and reads all that dark sky . . . overexposing the image. You need to manually set the camera to underexpose (use of RAW is preferred) and set exposure when you convert from RAW. You can then eliminate the white disk and replace it with a properly exposed moon, combining it in a PS edit with a perfectly exposed sky.
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~
