Widefield shot from Orpington of the Moon rising over the distant horizon (Swanley / Dartford and beyond) with Jupiter hanging in the sky directly above. Taken from the roof (had to climb out a small bedroom window to get this view).

This is one of many shots I took in RAW format at various ISO and exposure settings. Edited in LightZone to try and bring the foreground back in (but mostly failed). The challenge was to not over expose the Moon but still get foreground. Canon 450D. 0.3 seconds @ 18mm, f/6.3, ISO400.
