Great work. I love seeing single exposure shots and it certainly makes this show even more impressive.

Did you, by chance, use the brush tool in Lightroom on the sky to take down the brightness of it?

Niv24 In reply to Skarxun [2011-07-29 00:57:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, I did brighten the sky with the brush tool and levels to pull out the stars some more.

Skarxun In reply to Niv24 [2011-07-29 01:58:00 +0000 UTC]

Oh! You used it to brighten the sky? I generally find with my exposures I need it to darken the sky. Are you using a graduated ND?

Niv24 In reply to Skarxun [2011-07-29 20:59:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah Lighten. In this case the Moon was very bright so to keep the correct exposure of the landscape the sky was dark. Also there is no Light pollution to blow out the exposure of the sky
