Night sky Red moon

Diana has a small light that allows her to read at night out on the deck. Last night as she was reading, the moon showed red from the fire smoke that blew over the valley. I watched this as the night became darker and felt this shot was the best. Shooting at night without flash means a lot of digital noise but by keeping the dark areas dark the noise is not noticeable - plus a bit of noise reduction from LR5 helps.


Diana felt that the moon was too small in the photo above - remember that our eyes/brain compensate and the camera doesn't. So below is an updated photo with a larger moon. What do you think?
