did you wanted the sky to be like that? I think a blue sky would look better....
but still a great photo

The photo is National Geographic magazine quality.

Diesel, I was searching for some awesome new wallpaper, and I stumbled on this!

VERY nice work!! As usual! Some people just have got "it".

EDIT: well it looks like embedding the images wont work, ken probably did something tricky to them? anyway i added the links.

SoYank · 01-08-2007, 02:33 PM

I like diesel's better.

diesel007 · 01-08-2007, 04:49 PM

Thanks for the compliments guys. Ken's have their own feel to them his colors in the second shot are very saturated.

SSSSHHHHHWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTT!!!!!

acizek · 01-09-2007, 09:47 AM

great pics!!! just keep them coming

looks like you chose the wrong career!??

remmib · 01-09-2007, 11:03 AM

No doubt, its a great shot by diesel

Gripster · 01-15-2007, 09:44 PM

So, with imitation being the most sincere form of flattery, I totally copied your idea.

I took a class locally in Encinitas and needed to take a night shot as part of my assignment. Inspired by your original image, I set out to take something similar for my coursework. So I loose marks for originality, but I think it came out quite well overall.

Interestingly, to get the streaks, I had to wait for a lot less light than I thought, even though I had the camera stopped down to f22. Also - did you apply a warming filter for the color?
