It's a cover photo for a novel, without a doubt.

Very nice effect Amy. Great result, particularly hand-held. The B&W works well.

ooouuuhhh, how romantic! A beauty, the 'softness' helps.
What a great 'chat-up' line; I FORGOT MY TRIPOD, PLEASE HELP STEADY ME? HEEEEEE, nice one, Amy, very clever, anything to get your man close.
Hope you had a great time, good to have you back, Magda (*_*)

Hello Amy,

THe moon is so lightfull as a sun! Not a big surprise about it.. 6 seconds for the moon is enormeous! :)
I'm surprise about the sharp of it for a 6 second expo. Youre in a cruiser and the moon have shurely a small movement of waves!
It's beautifull mood we have here! It's a great scene!

Great posting, Amy.
Maybe it was a good thing you dídn't have the tripod.
The blurry sea gives a special mood to it all.
Groet,
Joop.

Welcome back Amy and glad to hear you had a great time. This picture has a very surreal feel like the water was just a piece of paper you had added afterward to make us believe you had really been on a cruise!!! Very nice composition and nice tonal range. Quite creative in your tripod improvisation. Well done!

I didn't know that the moon had a ring! Fantastic image, the kind of photo that could become your best cruise souvenir. Very nice light, and the added softness is a bonus.

Welcome back!

Wow - amazing Amy! I didn't realize you were going on a cruise. We're leaving for one on Sunday! RC, going to the western Caribbean, so you've just whetted my appetite even more, not that I needed any encouragement!

I tried to capture a shot like this on the lake when we were camping once, but it was just too shaky. It just takes your breath away, doesn't it - moon on the water? Incredible!

Amy!

I understand you very well. My best memories I had them sailing at sea in the late 70's and early 80's. Full moon night at sea in the Caribbean sea, nothing like it! I traded in these waters for ten years! Swett mmeories.
Well done , and realised. Do you remember if it was a lighthouse we see on the horizon on the right.
TFS,
Robert

Amy,
Stunning is an understatement. This is one of the best B&W sunset's a camera will ever capture. Great work with the composition and the sun. I like it very much!

Wonderful, just superb.

It seems sort of sleepy and just so smooth, I think this is a wonderful shot.

I think the soft focus works. The water looks like it is in motion.. which it would be.
I like it, A romantic place to be...
