As close as my camera can get to reproducing the stars i can see on a clear night at the back of my house. I live so remotely that almost no light pollution (that red glow) reaches us from towns.
I created the image by combing 3 exposure taken over 6 minutes. i attempted to compensate as much as i could for the natural movement of the stars. I merged them into one image in photoshop, duplicated them and raised the exposure. I then colour shifted this over exposure to blue and gausien blurred it to remove the exposure artifacts.
If enough people like the effect i may improve it and write up a proper tutorial.
Would have been better if I had a tripod instead of just leaning against a tree...!

Perched on a 264 feet high rock formation sits Mont St. Michel. During the seasons' highest tides the abbey is surrounded by water.
During low tide the flats provide food for the world's only herd of salt water plant eating sheep (Les agneaux des prés salés), the meat tastes salty.
Mont St. Michel's tides can rush in at incredible speeds.The tides in the area shift quickly, and has been described by Victor Hugo as ‡ la vitesse d'un cheval au galop, "as swiftly as a galloping horse."
The tide actually comes in at 1 meter per second.
Popularly nicknamed "St. Michael in Peril of the Sea" by medieval pilgrims making their way across the tidal flats, the mount can still pose dangers for visitors who avoid the causeway and attempt the hazardous walk across the sands from the neighbouring coast.
The dangers from the tides and quick sands continue to claim lives.
Mont Saint Michel is a small rocky island about 1 km from the north coast of France at the mouth of the Couesnon River in Normandy.
The mount is best known for the medieval Benedictine Abbey and steepled church that occupies most of the 1km-diameter clump of rocks jutting out of the waters of the English Channel.
