If I remember correctly it was taken on my tripod. I dashed out because I realised the sunset might be pretty good that evening and didn't have much time before the light went. Actually its 3 photos using HDR, I used photomatix essentials to stitch them together and selected to reduce the noise which I guess might have made it a little unsharp.
I liked the clouds and the light and of course the peaks. The foreground in the shot is pretty unremarkable so I was glad it came out very dark so as to de-emphasise it.
EDIT:- actually I remember now these were taken without my tripod owing to the lack of time I had before the light went. I did take some other shots of this scene on a later date and then I used a tripod, but they didn't come out so well as the moon was too bright. I now know on the moon shots I should have exposed for the moon and then for the scene and combined the two. I'll try that again at some point.
