Snydremark my very own Lightrules moment More info | Aug 21, 2013 16:23 | #5 Did you use a flashlight to paint the rocks? If so, I'd maybe try going a bit further down them next time. But, that said, it's a great photo as it is. - Eric S.: My Birds/Wildlife

But for some reason, I seem to like the mood better on this. http://www.flickr.com/photos/pyrospawn/

On the first shot it looks as if you overexposed too much where you blew out the details on the MW, and the light painting makes the hills/rocks look fake. I really like the second one better, overall, more natural landscape, better exposure of the MW. Hey, great job for your 1st attempt!
