Fantastic image, Mike!!! I love this! What time of night did you do this one? The sky isn't pitch black like a night time usually is, and the streaks coming from behind the rocks really makes this one stand out! Just beautiful!

Sharon, this was taken about 2am under full moonlight. It is a 2 minute exposure, hence the streaks from the clouds' motion blur. Since there was a bright full moon, the long exposure was able to capture a little bit of blue hue in the sky, even at 2am! I did bring this color out with some curves adjustments, though. -Mike

This is beautiful!! I love it! I have been wanting to try something similar. How do you keep your shutter open for 2 minutes? Is that what a cable release is for? Thanks!

Hi Mike! Beautiful capture of Monument Rocks. I live in Salina and have been wanting to make it out there one of these days. I also love your storm images. Kansas definately seems to have enough tornadoes to go around. Where do you live?

WOW! Awesome image! Were the rocks lit just by moonlight during your LTE?! And it looks like those stars moved a little in those two minutes, lol! ;) Great work!
