Milkyway over the Erg Chigaga in Morocco. I did some image averaging for the sky (40 images taken at ISO 6400 with the 5DsR) and then waited 90 minutes for blue hour, which is when I took four more photos for the foreground. Everything was then blended in Photoshop to create this final image.

I like the darkness of this picture, but without losing details in the shadows. It changes from the super light night pictures. Nice mood !

Thanks Thomas, this was exactly what I was after.. having a photo that feels like night but still has enough detail to provide interest
