Shot this over the weekend. And now see how much more time it needs. 25x240seconds before losing it behind the trees in my yard. I also plan to add color when I get out next.

How does it look on your monitor? I've been "playing" to my darkest monitors (HP flat screen and older CRT) but it leaves the background quite light on my laptop where I do my work.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Larry

Larry,

Very nice shot; do you plan on adding any H-a data?
