About Wonder from these thousand of "me's",
which one am I?
Listen to my cry, do not drown my voice
I am completely filled with the thought of you.
Don't lay broken glass on my path
I will crush it into dust.
I am nothing, just a mirror in the palm of your hand,
reflecting your kindness, your sadness, your anger.
If you were a blade of grass or a tiny flower
I will pitch my tent in your shadow.
Only your presence revives my withered heart.
You are the candle that lights the whole world
and I am an empty vessel for your light.
AL Rumi

Hi, Larissa
Ok, first I put the tent with a light inside, then waited until the moon just above the mountain, then I had few shots, then waited a round 2 hours where the moon almost
Above my head, I’ve put the camera on the tripod, selected shutter speed as 30 second and aperture at 2.4, with cable release locked, the camera will open for 30seconds and shut then immediately open again that was for 90 minutes, that means after one hour and a half I’ve got 180 shots, put all the images together in PS > file > automate > batch.. result in star trails + the moon shot,, that’s it , a lot of time and patient and cold :)Happy New Year
Saeed

A real new years beauty. Looks like a great night to camp out...must get cold there in the night. It sure does in the deserts around here. often below freezing.


Linda Bique   {K:73877} 2/17/2008
Lovely words and WOW a great image, I appreciate your instructions to Larissa regarding how you did this. One day I hope to have that kind of patience, it certainly paid off here. Very creative and so interesting, an image with high impact.

As Ansel Adams said "You don't take a photograph, you make it" and that you did!! :)


Ameed El-Ghoul   {K:42188} 3/26/2008
Okkkkkkkkkkkkkk .. Now this is a picture for Saeed for sure,
I was about to ask you how did you do it, when I saw your answer to Larissa, I thought at the begining that you used the Pulb mood, but I guess I was wrong, one day I will have to try this :)
Wonderfully done Saeed for sure and I don't know how this image wasn't recognized,
All the best,
