Comments by Sandi MacDonald on Thu, 10/17/19 08:13 That's really nice. Not as many stars but the lighter portion of the mountains make up for it. Is that a water fall in the distance?;-) Comments by les perry on Thu, 10/17/19 11:10 Except for the intruding yellow lights could be a charcoal drawing Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Thu, 10/17/19 12:27 A darker background (either grey or black) serves to bring out slightly more detailing... not that that is important to the overall feel of the composition... but the detailing serves to ground the image in the rugged landscape where the photo was taken. The scattered lights create a sense of peace and loneliness... I used to get the same feeling when I traveled by ship along the coast of British Columbia as a young person.

The big rock on the left is the 3000+ foot high El Capitan, and there off in the distance is Half Dome, the summit of which is almost 5000 feet above the valley floor.
