Pink clouds and the moon behind the silhouette of a palm, the evening before Tropical Storm Ernesto is set to come by Orlando. Handheld, on my A70 because my Rebel's battery was left at work in its charger...

Far too grainy...try lowering the ISO to 50 if you can...that would be my advise. I hate basic editing...your photo could have been made really, really nice with advanced editing.
Okay, you've got some cool stuff working for you in this shot and some things that IMHO hurt it.
Stuff that's working: Sky, great tones between the blue, pink, orange of the sunset. Like it allot. Good exposure of the moon, it doesn't seem to be completely burned out. Great job!
Stuff that's not really working for me: There is just too much of our main subject IMHO. My eye keeps dancing around the entire frame with no central subject to focus on. Perhaps focusing on just one branch would help you our here with the composition.
Overall, I do think you've met the challenge, good luck and keep shooting!
