Taken on a starry night near my town of Hafnarfjörður.
Developed on RAW twice and combined into one. One for the sky, one for the foreground. Turned the color temperature down to minimum for the sky part to get it as blue as I could. Removed a light in the background.

I knew this one would be on the front page -- and I'm always so encouraged whenever I get to see the voters getting it so right! This is so beautiful! CONGRATULATIONS!
Stunning contrast and the midnight blue sky gives the barn a wonderful amount of pop. Maybe (and this is being very picky as there is no way I could take a shot as good as this) I would have taken a couple of steps forward just to reduce the grass/rock/negative space at the bottom of the frame and allowed the viewer to see a little more of the barn. Stunning and bumping to 8
