Beautiful picture! The B&W is a great choice. I am drawn into the scene, and yet so much is hidden that I have no idea what I am drawn into. I find it emotionally intense.
Thanks also for your comment on my barn photo, Beamer.

Thanks guys, this one hangs on my wall. One of my fav places in the world, Joshua Tree NP in California. This was taken @5am at first light and the waning crescent moon rising. I had been star gazing all night and fallen asleep in a chair. 3 coyotes woke me @4:30am singing to each other triangulating on me. Suddenly they stopped and then I noticed that the moon had just appeared above the horizon. This was taken about 15 minutes after that. It was impossible to get the moon sharp, it moves too fast even for high ISO exposure like this. It always seems to be smeared or glowing. In reality this was the very smallest sliver of a crescent moon, probably the last morning before the new moon. I actually thought I was there on the new moon night, best time for Milky Way watching.
