Blue Moon - Engadin, Switzerland

Thanks for the comments on my previous post.

After Pink comes the Blue!

I wanted to make a night shot with the stars, but ended up with a twilight image. (but then next morning I made my "Jupiter's Dream" image posted last year)

C&C are welcome, thanks for looking

Definitely blue. The larger version shows the details in the foreground grasses nicely. I think that some burning in of the brightest area of the sky and it's reflection could help the balance. Right now, they grab the most attention, when I think that the mountain and the moon should be the main attraction.

Very nice image Shantikara. I like the wonderful elements and the composition. The reflection and the textures of the grass stand out for me. Well done.

The blue works well to create a nice mood with this one. I might give it a little CCW rotation?

Nice mood and blue tones in this Shantikara. The large version shows nice detail in the grasses and nice light on the mountains. Maybe burn the brightest areas to focus more on the mountains and sky. But really nice as is. Very nice.

Thank you for the comments. I made a fast repost. I agree with the comments on the bright sky area. It was difficult to process it, because of the wide dinamic range in the sky gradient.
