No I didn't get to do that. But I did get to enjoy the very bright moon-lit night when I took the dogs out for a walk after midnight.

So simple and yet so beautiful.
Charline Xia replied:
Thank you, Susan. You are so right, I was looking for a simple and abstract foreground so as to give the focus to the moon.

Thank you, Cheryl! I had hoped to capture the moon on the horizon, but the clouds and fog lingered on the surface of the lake when the moon just rose. I'll have to wait for another moon!
