Ben Lomond
'The Emu' rising above the Pavilion, Ben Lomond National Park, Tasmania. The landscape is lit entirely by starlight. There was no moon, and light pollution is very minimal in this location.
This is a vertical stitch of five frames, shot at f 2.8, 30 seconds, ISO 5000 at 16 mm. I'm slowly learning some slightly more advanced techniques for processing images like this.
In this case, stitching was done using photomerge in lightroom CC. After stitching I pulled the shadows as far as they would go and did some basic white balance adjustments in lightroom, then exported the file to photoshop as a .dng and applied some selective curves adjustments to the foreground and sky using layers and masks to bring out a bit more detail, while hopefully retaining a 'night time' feel.
