By the light of the autumn moon

I'm certainly no pro snapper, but I just had to take this picture from my garden and capture the moment, A cold but beautiful night.

Nice dreamy feel to this. Difficult to get a shot like this right. Well done.

Thank you Donmac for your appreciated comment,,
Like I have said I'm no professional photographer and don't know the first thing about photography honest!!! I see a feeling or feel a beauty and then snap, no preparation or posh lenses or anything so your comment means alot.

Thank you once again xx

Very nice! I'm very new to photography as well, but it is clear that capturing the moment is more important than getting all of the settings exactly right.

Absolutely beautiful, nice leaving the focus in the middlish part of the pic and elsewhere dark, gives the whole image feeling. Nice One!

Thanks for your commented edwind - I appreciate what you are saying but the picture was taken only on Sunday 13th Nov (Autumn)- the leaves were off most of the branches and the others were dropping - you'll just have to take my word for it and maybe look beyond.
I believe its all down to individual interpretation, and thats fine
