Impressive clouds with the moon and planets peeking through. The glow of the car lights adds interest. I'm a little confused by the slant on the right side where the trees seem to be leaning to the left.

I perfect agree with Cynthia, beautiful effect created by the lights.

Another query on the leaning trees, Mike, but I do love your composition, content and the beautiful effect of the headlights on the scene!

I guess in the dark I was leveling the camera based on the large tree in the fg which apparently I got vertical. It's a little confusing to me in that if I got the right hand trees more vertical then the large tree would be leaning a lot to the right due to the distortion with the 16mm lens. I didn't want to try to correct the distortion in editing because that would cut off too much of the image. I thought I would just leave it the way it turned out.
