The sky's the limit
Had a go at replacing the sky again on this one, being as the rocks gave me a really easy outline. But to keep it as close to reality as possible, the stars are blurred exactly as they were in the original - the only reason this wasn't possibly in the original was a) the North Star is a bit higher than that, it'd be about at the top of the image in this, and b) it was like 3am and we were ready to head home!
The upside is that because the stars were taken outside the house, that I could leave the camera until the batteries died, which impressively was about 10 1/2 hours. Although I did do a quick swap half way in, still not bad in freezing weather though.
This is another for a friend's music art, so I don't feel bad about the compositing, because even though it's almost real, that's not what I was going for. The idea is it looks good on Spotify on your phone:)
