Just thought I'd share this and get some feedback in the process. First night shoot with the 20D. I was going for the full moon, but this is what I got instead.

After working the image, my wife and I like the shot. We think it is pleasing to look at and there are lots of details to keep one busy looking at it. Some of the details I really like are the shadows in the water (Truckee River). There are also people walking and standing around by the fountain (below center gazebo). It also looks lighter on my other monitor, guess I need to calibrate so I know which one is more accurate.

Any and all comments are welcome. I'm interested in seeing what others find appealing or unappealing in this shot as compared to my own impressions. A detailed critique is not needed, but I wouldn't say no.

Thanks,
Chris

ooh! I know where that is! There's a sandwich shop called Dreamer's Cafe near there!

Beautiful photography by the way! I need to try out taking shots of the city.

That's a gorgeous image! It almost looks like a fine painting. The reflections in the water are especially eye catching.
