Here you go... The lens is a Canon EF-S 55-250 mm 4-5.6 IS (zoom Lens)
The "Mode" I was using is the "Landscape" program that is one of the choices with the Canon T3 camera. I was actually taking some sunset pictures when I noticed the crescent moon.. then I heard the geese honking.. turned focused and snapped of about 5-6 quick pictures. So.. it really was lucky, because I had no time to fiddle with any of the settings I was using for sunset.

I also messed around with the image using Photoshop Elements.. cropping and some color balance adjustments
