Chim Chimney Chim Chimney ...

[ourkind (Carlos)]

I was in the Blue Mountains on Saturday night, forecast was clear and cold. Slowly getting through some of the photos I took. This one is practically straight out of the camera with a little contrast boost in CS6. 16mm 30sec f/2.8 ISO 6400.

Foreground lit with my lighter.

Love the innovation from the lighter, must have been one of those Kinicky one's from Grease???

Superb image, framing, Milky Way, clouds, sky, it has it all.....

Thanks Chris! Just a plain old 'bic' lighter did the trick

Love it Carlos very well done!
I am spending most of my time on IIS looking at this section. The imagination and talent shown here - you guys are modern day space artists. For gosh sake print them and sell them - at your local markets wherever.

Peter thanks for your kind and encouraging comments. I'm actually in the process of making your suggestion a reality, checked out a few of the local markets today and waiting on the print results to see how they appear on photographic paper and canvas, hopefully I won't need to make too many colour adjustments.

Cheers!
