The nights when you can balance the moon light with the Milky Way in a single exposure are some of the most magnificent shooting conditions one could hope for. I waited years for the right time to blend these conditions to create this image. Fast moving clouds add a nice element to this but they were quite a fickle component of this image to deal with. At times they would completely sweep in concealing the mountainside and ocean, then completely retreat out of the image. I was fortunate to get this capture that shows this movement without cloaking any other parts of the composition.
