This shot is a view of whats known as 'Arthurs Seat'. Arthurs Seat is actually an extinct volcano in Edinburgh, and there are large ponds surrounding it. This photo was taken on a moonlit night and also had light coming from Meadowbank Stadium (a nearby sports stadium)

They should forbid people like you to take pictures. A few more like you out there and all the rest of the photographers will be useless. Dreamlike landscape. 10
Wow, long exposure and moonlight? Awesome.
I like it how the slope of the hill leads the eye trought the frame, suddenly you struck a ruin and the imagination comes up with its own fairytale.
the green makes it very mysterious, and I like the contrast between the smooth lake and the rough, rocky land. This is sunset? or moonlight? I wish I could see the stars better, they're cool. Perhaps with a little selectice processing, you could make the sky's colors more deep and dramatic. I'd love to see it.
I really like the color here -- the green constrasted with the evening sky. I think I would have shifted slightly to the right to be more in keeping with the rule of thirds. Great shot!
