Description

An old water tower right outside my hometown (Alhassa) in Saudi Arabia. Taken with a D200 & 17-55 2.8 DX. This was the result of 218 exposures each of them was 30 seconds long. Those images were merged later on my pc. As for the foreground, it was painted with a flashlight. ISO was 400 & F 2.8.

Thanks, Carrol.

I didnt do a lot of work on editing here. just some burning on the tower edges, dodge on its middle parts, and the rest was just contrast/brightness/saturation/unsharp mask. And in the end I merged the edited photo with the remaining 217 pix.

Nothing heavy :P

Cheers,
