Me too, Grant. Technical piece is great, and the composition is very cool.

Thanks gentlemen. I had a good coach to get me started and definitely want to do more of this.

Nice one.

Once you start .... it's hard to stop, just out looking for good clear skies all the time.

I really like the windmill in there.

Arrrr

Super cool foreground! I think the background looks great, though it might need a little more sharpness and also some color noise reduction.

Nice first try. But watch out, Astrophotography can be very addictive and therefore quite detrimental to a healthy sleep rhythm...
