Your tree embraces the reflection of the moon and provides a beautiful frame for this glow. I see the moon working, not in conflict, but in harmony with the tree to create this magical scene.

Haunting and eerie. I especially like the moonlight on the water.

I love your interpretation of the same tree and moonrise that I produced, standing right next to you. You abstract the tree by moving in, giving us an even more Halloween theme than I did. (http://www.pbase.com/image/103633078 ) In mine, the tree hauntingly seems to be embracing the moon, while in yours, the moon seems appears to push the tree out of its path. Your bright moon contrasts to your dim tree, bringing them into contrast and possibly conflict. In in my image, a darker moon floats securely within the embrace of the tree. It is amazing how different these images are from each other, and how each tells its own story.
