 Approx. 17 minute exposure. The pier bobbed up and down a bit and made a little bump in my star trails, unfortunately.
Editing was a raw conversion twice, one with a regular white balance and one with a tungsten/custom, then I overlaid the tungsten one and messed with the blending mode, then did channel mixer, gradient map, curves and levels.
Also an unsharp mask with high radius just for the sky, and vignette added in the corners.

This image was a top 5 for me. I am sorry to see it did not do better.

Really nice capture. If the trails are limited because of the 10 frame limit I hope you shot more and made them longer. Stunning light and perfectly composed. 10
