Moon and Branches

Seemed to be appropriate to the fall / Halloween season here in the US. Shot handheld with an 18-200mm lens.

Crescent Moon

We had a break in the clouds this evening and I was able to capture the crescent moon before it set.  This shot is a fusion of two exposures processed with Photomatix Pro 4.0 HDR software.   The camera is a Nikon D7000 and the settings were ISO 400, f/5.6, 200mm. The two exposures were 1/500 second and 1/200 second.
