Spooky moon glow
Taken last April 2019, near Wanipigow (my dark site). Looking at zenith as the moon rise is in full swing, the wind is roaring through the trees, anything but settled and tranquil. All in, it yields a very weird combination of light.

Re: Spooky moon glow
Typically the sky gets washed out by rising Moon. You got a nice contrast there. Well done Ian!
