I know it's a cliche, but I couldn't resist it. I do like that late-evening lighting.
The obelisk is a grave marker in a cemetery near my house. These were popular in the 19th century. The cemetery also has some sphinx-shaped tombs. I guess Egypt was big then.

Very nice. It's hard to balance the Moon like that.

Most people would walk right on by and not have the imagination required to capture such a fine shot. Nice job.
