Canyon Lake under Moonlight / Night Photography / Lens Flare..

Ive been shooting for a little over a year now and I'm loving it.. I especially love shooting at night ... long exposures.
Took this one recently. But as soon as the moon comes into play I get those pesky lens flares.. sometimes they look good in a shot.. but in this case not so good.. I could edit it in Photoshop, but I have to admit I'm not an expert at Photoshop as of yet. Just looking for any advice for better night shots, especially including the moon in the frame.
And what you think of this shot in general.


Nikon D5100
F/5
20 sec exposure
ISO 160
18 mm

I appreciate any advice or tips.

Thanks in advance ! - Chuck

The lens flair on the water is very easy to remove in photshop...I don't know if This will help but worth a try...

You might try opening your aperture up and your exposure compensation so as to have a bit faster shutter speed..

If you shoot it wider then you want, then crop it...
