Under the Hunter's moon - I would have liked the moon to be a little closer to the elevator in this one, but hey....pretty hard to spin the Earth! :)
This is one of the Grain Elevators in Thunder Bay - constructed in 1908.

Really dig the sky here and the grain elevator.

Since u are okay with critique, your instinct imo was right that the moon needed to be closer to the building.
For me, sitting so close to the edge the moon is actually a distraction. You may want to experiment with a severe crop off the top.
If this image were more vertical and the moon had more breathing room I think the image would work better w/the moon included.
Hope that may help.

Thanks for the confirmation Marko - as I was post processing I kept kicking myself say "Why would I not have flipped my camera on end for this?????" I'm going to test the cropping though....
