    Garry, I have one question for you: Do you even have the ability to capture a bad image? If so, you’re doing a damned good job of hiding it.

    This image is another great star trail. Keep it up.

    wow – this looks very cool. great how you’ve used the stars to frame the tree! very well done.

    Fantastic shot. The star trails frame this beautifully shaped tree superbly and the moon light lights the tree and sand up well with that exposure time. Love how the lights on the horizon seem so under control with the rest of the shot.

    A real winner. How did you work out the exposure or was it one of many taken that evening?

    Truely Awesome shot mate. A master piece for sure. Its like the tree is alive with the branches giving it so much movement. I hope you have this one hanging on your wall.
