Was that a single exposure or did you stack more together? And how is the noise in the full version?

ayamesuzaku In reply to ??? [2004-10-14 01:33:45 +0000 UTC]

Love the detail on the rocks! It's amazing how you managed to get the sky to look like that... Did you ket the camera run as night was falling to get the stars like that? I'm very curious. That wouls explain the long exposure time, though.

Good job!

Love,
Suzaku, Ayame

they always go in cirlces. but you want to aim north or south to get the full effect

great feeling, brilliant orientation and rich saturation levels that really carry me into a state of peaceful strength. god i love the outdoors. i love my computer and working online and so forth, but it pales greatly in comparison to anything outside in our beautiful world.

glad to see you're up and around the earth. i knew you'd be better off without those extra teeth.
