moonlight

How nice to see a moonlit night actually look light night.  Too often a very long shutter opening is used to turn night into day.  The softness in the moving clouds, the lack of much detail on the slopes, and the wonderful subtle reflection of the moon in the foreground make for a great nighttime photograph.

Thank-you stephen for your appreciation!

You hit the mark: after trying different exposures, I chose this one. Even if less detail is present, it represents faithfully what I was seeing: a luminous and clear moonlit night.
