Hmmm where is the moon? The orange thing looks like the sun going down, or is it the moon?!
Anyways I like the photo, I like how you composed it!

Send that off to Washington, I am sure someone there would really like it.

But for the moon, I would change the color. I have never seen the moon look that color.

When the moon is still THAT low, it may very well be of an orangey hue. Whether it ever is this orange I don't know, but I like how you have to look twice, and how you have to wonder what it is you're looking at in this photo. Other than that, it is exposed precisely, it is very sharp (at this size) ... and makes me wonder where exactly you'd positioned yourself in order to line the monuments up like this?

I was at the Carillion next to the Iwo Jima War memorial.

Those of you that have never seen a moon this color, google it.
