Image Details:

I shot this image close to my house in a nearby park in Feilding, New Zealand. Went out for a couple of hours in cloudy weather, hopeful that I would get a lucky break in the clouds. The moon was also rising and I had a 45 minute window to get the camera settings correct and find a composition! I was very pleased with the shot.
