Moon Behind The Tower

Can't believe how lucky I was to get this yesterday evening

The moon was moving behind the tower at just the right height to fill the gaps between the supports, and the falling sun's sheen on the crescent provided a great contrast

I didn't have time to get the tripod out, hence the depth of field is a bit limited, plus the fact this was handheld with a 150-500mm zoom
