I badly over-processed the 1st version of this image. Below is my 2nd attemt and, hopefully, it’s a bit better.
Struggling quite a bit with the post processing.

I am not behind a nice and proper screened computer but the first shot looks very good on it!! :D A background shot for a new Twilight movie :lol:
I like it! :)

The processing on the first is grand and a good moon shot, well done

I like them both, the first has more texture to it though, very good.
