Inside my empty bottle I was constructing a lighthouse while all the others were making ships

Great image - I love the warm tones and the placement of the moon in the shot. Very nicely done.

I've been looking long & hard for a shot similar to this. I would have a barn & silo with the rising moon but the concept would be the same. I need the right spot at the right time though. Not an easy task!

Nice capture! You did well my man, you did well. Thanks for sharing.

Steve, you're always thinking outside the box. That's why I like your images so much!
