I really like that.

I don't suppose you would care to share how you managed the exposure to get that length of star trail without overexposing and blowing out the detail on the bridge?

Thanks. This was one 3600 sec shot @f/4.5 iso400, to be honest I didn't do much to it. It was very dark, very little pp on it.

Hope that helped some, thanks again.

A single 1-hour exposure? Wow, very little noise or anything...I love it!!

Thanks.

I would even like to try a little stacking, been having a problem with the action to work in cs3.

Great shot... is that the sun peaking out from behind the mountains?

after looking at google earth, I will have to say it's Payson, AZ. They have a check box that shows city lights, never knew they had that. See what I learned just from your question, thanks. :)

Really? I had no idea that feature existed either. It's official. They really have thought of everything...

Thanks for looking into it!

This has an abstract, almost sci fi quality to it. Very cool.
