Yeah, I remember this one because of the long discussion about moonlit scene
colors :-)
It looks fine here on my screen, just took a while for it to soak in; one of
those kinds of scenes I guess that take some time to know what you're
seeing. The cloud looks great.
I'd have to say that the moonlight should be brighter in the reflection,
very near the same intensity as the Moon itself. But then that the stars
might not show at all due to the small perturbations on the water surface.
That's only because those waves seem prominent and distant enough to imply
there is enough disturbance to prevent the tiny specks of stars from being
visible. In fact the moon reflection sort of proves that out. I could be
very wrong though. Simply that the only times I can recall actually seeing
stars reflected in water is from rather close up.
Oh, another thing. The Moon appears greenish to me (I know, I tend to see
green a lot as some people might know) instead of the usual low-in-the-sky
yellow, orange, or reddish color. Clear air or not I'd expect it to be more
yellow-white if nothing else. Although I've ended up with a blue moon
before so I can't judge well :-)

The moon is a sphere with the map of Moon's surface; foreground stars done with
Chris Colefax's galaxy macro, background is a sky_sphere; atmosphere is
absorbing & emitting media.

Perhaps too many. Their placement is random.

The trees are just images mapped on triangles. Placement is indeed done with
macros.

The moon itself is pale yellow; but combined with the bluish atmosphere it might
look a bit green.

There are a couple of include files out there that can show the correct star
positions for any point on the Earth. I don't have the links for them, but
I'm sure someone does.

I'll look into it, but this means I have to figure out where on earth this place
could be located :)

You thought noone would notice an extra zero, huh?

I couldn't see much until I used GIMP to "Equalize" colors - which
resulted in a day scene with a night sky! It looks very good to me.
The far shore is a bit strange. Is there a small island in that end of
the lake?

There is an island in the middle of the lake; the scene uses a fairly large
camera angle so perspective is a bit screwy.
