Slight crop to more square aspect ratio. Hue/Sat adjustment layer to amp up horizon colors. Hi-pass sharpening. Duplicate layer set to soft light mode. A little very detailed cloning work to reduce chromatic aberration around moon.
NO Neat Image, NO shadow/highlight, NO Tone Mapping :-)
Shot 30 mins or so after sunset, looking southwest.

Wow! It's beautiful! No neat image, shadow/highlights, tone-mapping needed! Just an excellent photographer to get it right with the camera! :) Congratulations!
Terrific capture. You don't see the planets aligning like that to often and you cought them just right. Glad to see that you are out and about again for this early morning sunrise.
I like the way you added interest by including the ground cover in the shot, I am not sure how often the moon lines up like that but it was an awesome sight. Good capture
Fantastic - I love the way you have included the Moon, Venus and Jupiter alignment in this shot - and with an interesting foreground too. I hope you ribbon.
Ooh, you captured it! It was all clouds and I didn't even get to see it :( Fantastic colors and nice composition, also a goot brightness on the celestial objects.
