Hi Stephen...
very nice night photography with great long exposure work...like the composition by the wind mill under the texture sky with so many stars in front of the green field...
good exposure controlled with nice light management...color contrast & sharpness is also good...
good informative Note also...

The night sky in this shot is astounding, I also like the illuminated grass and the cozy cottage in the background.

Very great shot! -ML

Hallo Stephen,

This is pure reality,but on the other hand it looks almost surrealistic,looks like you had a shutterspeed of several days ;=]],wauw the effect of the moving clouds is amazing.
your gallery is very impressive indeed !

Hello Stephen,

amazing photography. The stars moved little bit due to long exposure, but it does not matter, result is perfect.
