Hi Don
Nice shot.. what equipment did you use to take it? Was it handheld or on a tripod?
On the exposure front ...did you use the sunny F16 rule? or did you meter and underexpose to keep the blacks black.
I and no doubt others would be interested to know.

Thanks John it was with Canon XT with 70-200 f4 L IS lens with Kenko Pro 300 DG 1.4 teleconverter so it made it 280mm.
I had a tripod and set camera at f8 1/125 sec. ISO 100 with wired remote.
The pic is cropped in Lightroom and shot raw.
LR has where you can work with blacks .I could make the grey areas even blacker . LR is amazing where you can crop to enlarge .I sharpened in PSE3 since LR does not do as well .
