I took this photo on a very cold early February morning from in northern Maine.  The Sun is beginning to rise behind me illuminating the distant mountains, horizon and snow-covered frozen lake. As the Sun is rising, the moon is setting. I used a tripod and set the camera to manual mode with the following settings:
