Nope :-P
Keep them coming.
I see them as beautiful night scenes with starry skies.
I'm not a fan of some setup night scenes but this ticks my boxes.
We're all different and wuth different preferences :-)

Thanks avondale87 I like them natural as well

Superb! Did you use anything special for the beams of light or just powerful torches?

No they are only small LED torches and led torch glows that colour with the cameras white balance

I like. :-)

A rather ominous-looking machine as the highlight,
reminds me a bit of the Transformers movies.

Awesome. Care to share your technique for the first one? 15 seconds but I assume multiple shots stacked?

I planned and planned for this one, tried light painting, focus stacking, and.... blah.... lackluster. Too much light pollution and my technique wasn't the best. But it's good practice for when I'm back in West Texas again.

It's actually one shot, my technique ( if it's one ) is using the PhotoPills app. I used it to find the darkest location, when the Galactic Center was visible and no moon. I also used a bright wide angle lens. I'm very fortunate to live in Canadian Rockies.
