The lighting is just right to really capture the "feel" of the metal that makes up the sculpture. I like the inclusion of the moon as well, though the moon is always a frustrating subject; it seldom makes its presence felt in a photograph the way it does to the naked eye. The mixture of blues, greens and browns works well.
