Moonlight Reflections

photo 374
I sat and waited 3hours for the moon to rise from behind the mountains across the water to Turkey.
When eventually it appeared, I couldn't see what I was doing and I wasn't sure what settings to use.
I have so much to learn about night photography. I am not pleased with this shot, but it was the best one I got.
Your advice and critique is more than welcome, maybe you can enlighten me!

Many thanks for your continual support and comments. :)"

I think it's lovely, with just those few houses illuminated on the left. I'm curious about the yellow hue from the moon. Surely there wouldn't be much pollution at this spot?

@sheliwithani There is a lot of dampness in the air, so it could be from that, otherwise it's from the settings on my camera as I wasn't sur what ones to use!

Which white balance setting was it on (even if you didn't choose it)? :)

Lovely reflection on water. Night photos are so hard. There were heaps of moon photos posted over last few days so go check out Exif info on them. I think maybe your ISO was too high???

Nice shot, great reflection, I don't do many night shots so unfortunately cannot help you with settings etc!

@sheliwithani Had a look at my camera, from what I can see the WB was on auto. The glow was the colour you can see as the moon was still an orangey colour, I think as someone mention that my ISO was probably bit to high, causing the glow around the moon?
