Photographer's Note
Sighisoara in Transylvania is where count Dracula was born and lived until he was 4 years old, so this moonrise in Sighisoara during the blue hour, and with the trees in their full Autumn finery, had a magical atmosphere. I've cloned out an annoying jet trail. Here's a less creepy daytime shot I found of the Tinsmith's Tower:

Bonjour, cher Chris,
Cette tour ΰ elle seule fait dιjΰ peur, l'on imagine que celle-ci est occupιe par des vampires assoiffιs de sang (frais pour l'hiver) !
En fait, j'aime beaucoup cette prise de vue de toute beautι.
Amitiιs.

Hello Chris,
Good management of the light and shadow contrasts captures the mood. The golden stones of the impressive tower sit well against the lovely blue sky. The moon peeking above the trees is a plus.

Bonjour Chris,
La prιsence de la lune est un atout ΰ la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les dιtails de cette partie du chβteau. La bonne luminositι fait ressortir les couleurs. Bonne journιe.

Hello Chris,
You play excellent with light and shadows.
Also the moon at the sky is a nice addition.
We get almost all detail to see.
You chose a nice angle with depth and perspective.
Sharpness and clarity are superb.
Very well done, TFS.
Best regards,
John

Bonjour Chris,
Nos photos se ressemblent un petit peu ce matin.Mais il faisait plus beau pour toi que pour moi. L'heure bleue est superbe ainsi que la lune. Le chβteau est magnifique sous cette lumiθre.

Hello Chris
Splendid combination of the tower in the warm sunlight of a late afternoon and the full moon rising at the eastern sky. Attractive colours with the blue sky behind the tower.
Excellent work. Have a good evening. Groet Rob

Hello Chris,
Golden glow of the upper part of the tower wonderfully in contrast to the surrounding in relative darkness.
Always wonderr about the tales of Dracula... but a nice myth to the scene.
Have a nice new day,
Ike

The low and very warm light of setting sun is really impressive, the reising moon indicates that by the evening it is already close, a very moody photo

Hello Chris,
The light is amazing here. The old tower of the castle is lit so wonderfully by the warm light and so it’s the autumn tree right in front of it. The moon rising up from behind the trees is a wonderful addition, which also adds a bit of an eerie mood.

Hi Chris.
Spooky. Even without the moon rising this would be an atmospheric shot. The Autumnal foliage and evening sunshine on the ancient bricks are superb. The darker, shadowy areas hint at the night about to envelop the tower. Well done.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Chris,
A splendid picture of Sighișoara with the defensive tower lit by a very strong and warm light.
Also the foliage shows its most beautiful colours.
The rising moon is an extra bonus for this photograph.
Best regards, Paul
