Best of the three IMO, prefer the wider angle the moon is an added bonus

You live in a staggeringly beautiful place Bjorn.

Thank you all! Most appreciated.

I purchased my first DSLR, the Pentax K20D, some months before I took this shot. So I was just starting to learn how to use the camera in a best possible way. The afternoon in February 2010 this shot was taken, there was the most breathtaking winter light, snow and a full moon. But the most memorable thing was that the Trondheimsfjord was almost perfectly still, almost like a mirror, which is quite unusual. The Trondheimsfjord is very wide and also deep, with typical strong currents, there is almost always some movement in the water. Had I known what I know today about photography, I would have brought a tripod and taken several shots with the aim of getting good exposures of both the moon and the landscape scenery, and made a composite image. At the same time I am happy the image above turned out as well as it did.

Great image, although I think cropping the snow from foreground would improve it.

Thank you Russ! I have been trying out different crops of this image since I took it five years ago, also without the snow foreground. Somehow I have ended up with liking the inclusion of the snow, even though I fully understand your point of view.
