Very artistic H! I like that it looks like a painting rather than a photo, it has a sense of story being told, it would make an interesing Stephen King book cover :)

Love it H. Great feel to it :thumbsup: So I'm guessing that this is 960 seconds tracked with the polarie?

Carlos,

Thanks, mate. As per my goal with my landscape imagery, I aim for my photographs to resemble paintings. Cheers!



Mike,

Thanks! No, I hopped into the frame in the last with 3 minutes to go, and, stood there for 2 minutes. I noticed that I tried to keep my head looking up at Orion, but, I involuntarily kept moving back down to the horizon. Thankfully, that's not noticeable in the image. :)



Greg,

Thanks!



Greg,

Thanks, mate! Yep, tracked with the Polarie. I was set up in sand, and, was in a hurry as the cloud was moving in and the Moon was to rise not so long afterwards, too, so, my alignment wasn't as good as it could have been.



Narayan,

Thank you. :)



Cheers, guys.
