Star trails - 2 hours (243 x 30 sec shots)

Shot in Wellington, New Zealand overlooking the city. The star trails are made up from 243 x 30 second shots. The moon set in the centre of the frame, with it naturally turning orange as it got close to dipping below the horizon. This is a shot I had planned for a while and took 3 unsuccessful attempts before getting a clear sky for long enough.

Such a great shot! But the more impressive stuff is how you dealt with the colors. That's a very tasteful color grading! I like that is not overly-contrasty, overly-sharpened like a lot of (my) work out there!
