    Stars at Dawn

    D800 @ 6400. Is this insane or what?

    How long an exposure? I think I see some barely streaking stars, and of course the water's surface.

    Very, VERY nice image!

    Greg, very nice shot, what time did you get up to get it? I believe Jetta and I would like to see the stars, but not now in the Pacific Northwest.

    Very nice. I love this kind of shot, both for looking at and taking. So fun to be out there under the stars and for me usually alone with my thoughts and nature. Good times!

    Greg, Really nice shot!

    great composition and beautiful colors

    What software do you us to process the raw files ?
    I suppose the highlights near the sun were blown and could not recover color really well in some areas

    I'm using LR4.1 , sometimes in the transitions from light to shadow, as seen on the water in your shot, I see some green tones which annoy me a bit, they can be corrected lowering the green saturation in the HSL panel
