Beam me up! - a photo on Flickriver

Beam me up!

This morning I got up at 2:30am, which is very unusual for me as a night owl - sometimes I go to bed at that time. We went to the top of a 4 story parking building in Palo Alto, California, to get a glimpse of the lunar eclipse. As calculated ahead of time, the moon with partial eclipse was at a 6° angle above the Stanford Dish at exactly 5:25am. The Dish is a big radio antenna owned by the US Government, and operated by the SRI International (Stanford Research Institute.)

I processed a balanced HDR photo from three RAW exposures, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
