The Minster and the Moon
 
A respectable photo of the moon taken with the Nikon D700. It features an illuminated York Minster and the silhouette of a large tree with the moon taking presidence in the centre. The clouds had just moved away in time to take this photo! Exposure time 30 seconds, ISO 200, 24mm lens.
