I love the color manipulation, it really brings out the lines, shadows, and texture in the sand. The best I've seen so far. 10

The light and angle give this a very powerful impact.

This is definitely interesting. I'm wondering how long the required exposure will be to have the stars streak all the way across the frame. I'm guessing 90-120 minutes probably. I wanna try it sometime :)

Wow! 351 seconds is like... let's see... 5.9 minutes! Great shot, and something that would be great to try if I ever get a camera that I can hold the shutter open.

How did you reduce the noise in the shot? Obviously you've got a better camera than mine, but even at ISO 100, I would imagine there should be a significant amount of noise with a 6 minute exposure, especially in the sky areas.

This shot rocks! I love it. I like it just the way it is. Did you use a wide angle lens?

Impressive. How long was your shutter open for this?
