This is a little gem that I have lost quite some time ago. I was meaning to get back to it and finally managed to do so.

This is a 55 image stack shot in Bluff New Zealand 2013 at 1am in the morning with the freezing wind howling from behind.

After some time I crept back in my camper and made myself some coffee and also decided to call it a night.

NIkon D800, Nikkor 14-24 at 14mm, f/2.8, 55 x 20 second exposures shot at ISO 3200.

Fantastic image so much going on, certainly would not have guessed it was a freezing windy night it looks to tranquil.
