Instead of 2 minutes at ISO 3200 for each shot, you could do shots for 16 minutes at ISO 400 for exactly the same result but with significantly less noise.
Don't be sorry, it's been a great discussion!


Great photo, Colin! I'd find that perfectly acceptable and doesn't cross my boundaries. I guess the only thing you did differently, was changing apertures for the foreground to bring it more into focus.


Thanks Deeno!
