Over The Moon

I was wondering around looking for some action when I noticed this egret roosting in a tree with the moon in view. After composing my shot, I began adjusting my my settings to really increase the depth of field when the egret took off. I just snapped off a shot and this was the result. It is so bad, but I still like it.

harry,

I love it. At first I thought the moon was flare but upon further inspection I was rewarded with an interesting well composed picture.
