    Wow...what a terrific result! Great silhouetted foreground with just a bit of light at the horizon. The star trails are very cool. I looked up Floris Van Breugel and I can see you did a lot of preparation for this image. Well done!

    Wow! That is really cool. What a trooper you are to set up such great shots of the night sky! I love the soft light and contrasting foreground. The star trails are just amazing.

    The night owl has struck again with a really powerful image. You can feel the rotation of the earth in this pic. Most star trail photos are not this dynamic. Once again, I envy your dark skies...
