Beautiful pic.
Thank you.
So beautiful and a bit other worldly.
Thank you. This was a challenging place to take the Milky Way. The light pollution from NY City and Western Long Island was extreme. It flooded the right side of the image. I was pleased it turned out as well as it did.
Great photo!
Thank you
Very ethereal!
Thank you
Very cool shot. Nicely done.
Thank you
Another great one!
Cate, thank you.
Very pretty Tim.
Thank you Laura
Wow, Tim, what an impressive photo especially as you illuminated the poles in the foreground. Great photography!
Thank you John. I enjoy doing light painting and this was a good opportunity. The light pollution was pretty bad. It was like having a nearly full moon. No red head lamp was necessary. It also meant that lighting the poles required less light that normally required.
Very nicely done, as someone else commented, somewhat otherworldly.
Thank you and thanks for liking so many of my images.
You are most welcome, it’s been a while since I caught up with what you have been doing here.
It’s nice to have you back.
WOW!
Thank you.
