Brilliant composition Ron, the arch looks like it is reaching up to the moon, the colour reflecting in it the beautiful deep blue of the sky, so well done!

Stunning, Ron. A plain and simple awesome image. As powerful a photograph of this beautiful structure as I've ever seen (and I was in St. Louis for four days last year) - again, awesome!

Great picture of the arch with the moon peeking over it. What a wonderful blend of colors, textures and subjects. Your eye is drawn to the reflection and then to the moon. Excellent.
