@MrsAmber: Thank you MrsAmber, I thought it was going to be easy, so I took couple of shots and the next day I looked at them in my PC, they weren't that good!! Next day I took many shots with different settings!

I have thinked to a song when I saw the photo... "Blue moon"... But your moon is not blue ! ;-)
Too bad for me, but she's very poetical and in the same time so near and so far..
Well done Sarito !
