Ken, that is a beautiful photo! I love the arcitecture, the placement of the moon, and the expressive sky. Who is Kris K by the way?

[kenyc]

Thanks Pio. Kris Kristopherson -- he wrote a song with that title.

Oh ok, that has crossed my mind, but I was too lazy to google it. I also thought it might be the architect :) Thanks for the links!

beautiful shot...the clarity throughout is amazing!! question, when shooting a shot like that, how do you get that type of crisp clarity throughout?? like what EXACTLy do you focus on?? newbie here, so trying to learn...:)

[Yiskah]

Great shot! This would make a great photo to teach about the primary colors:)

Hey Izzy35, glad you like it. For this I was trying to make sure I had enough DOF so that all the church pieces were in the focus area. 1/160 @ f6.3 and 73mm -- certainly I did take several shots and this was the best of the set overall. I had to go back and look, but in this case the image is not cropped and the focus point is almost dead center on the vertical column to the right of the moon.

:) Thanks Yiskah, glad you liked it! I was quite taken with the golden light here.
