Fab photo Stewart. I never noticed how nice the morning twilight was - must have been a bit too bleary eyed by that stage!

Yes it was a long but very enjoyable night.Was absolutely shattered all day Saturday though.

Sounds like you had a good night and that looks like a lovely place

Beautiful and different image. Very evocative!

Lovely image! 

Can I ask what exposure length you used here?  I love how you've caught the stars shining through the thin cloud on the left there.  Beautiful!

As much as I'm always shattered packing up after a session, the enjoyment I've had and the anticipation of looking over and tinkering with the images I've captured can keep me smiling for days!

Beautiful image as always Stewart, you always seem to be able to cram so much more colour into your images than us mortals!

Cant keep my fingers of the sponge and vibrancy tools :-)
