I find it always pays to keep the eyes open. Driving back form a fruitless shoot at Lake Coleridge in Canterbury , New Zealand, I saw the moon was going to be setting perfectly over a small tarn. This was during a rough patch in my life, holding on in faith that things would improve. I found myself in awe of the beautiful evening and moonset, raising my hands. The title 'Hope' was inspired from the encounter.

A multi image panorama with care taken to expose sufficiently to bring out details in the middle and far distance whilst not over exposing the setting moon.
