It must have been so difficult, placing each and every plant exactly where you wanted.  :p

It would better if there were a flying saucer in the distance. ;)

Still, it's nice.

Very nice. Artist in the making...

Could you try variation without the moon?
For some reason moon distract me away from otherwise excellent composition and all of my attention goes to the right side (but this is probably just me).

That UFO can't be real. It must have been photoshopped into that otherwise stellar photograph.

cool pic, try working with split toning or the duo tone mode in photoshop.  allows you to get a little more subtlety out of your toning -- unless the sepia thing is your deal, personally i find it overused.  

also make sure your verticals are vertical.  the right crossing pole is leaning to the left.  perspective is very important in photography.  this is why many use large format cameras, for precise depth of field and perspective controls. Edit > Transform > Perspective in photoshop will allow you to do this.

just for fun's sake:

I think I like the original image better, looks sharper, more stark,... personally I like the moon in the shot, might have looked better if the moon was larger

About 800 yds out, by the third boulder on the right.  Bigfoot.  

Trust me, he's there.
