Annapurna in moonlight, a photo from Dhawalagiri, West

Photographer's Note

In very early morning, it took over 10 minutes to expose only by moonlight to catch Mount Annapurna's figure and stars's movement.

Very nice shot - it makes the mountain look almost liquid, an interesting effect.

Hi Tao,

this is spectacular capture. Not exactly sharp and maybe it's a bit shame you didn't include northern star into your shot but overall good effort!

Kind regards,

Viktor

Wonderful work! I always like star trials. However, as vikous said, it might have been better to include the pole star. Also, a wide angle lens is more impressive on star trail shote generally..

really original shot, very well done, maybe it was better to use for such a shot, an 100 iso and let more time so the stars would have been moch longer stripes,really interesting the fact that they have differents colors
best regards fred
