That is a truly beautiful picture, well worth the time put in.

Interesting K.. Sort of JMJ mashed up with Camel.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments.

It was the first thing that came into my head when seeing your picture. More to do with the album title and cover art than musical content I suspect.

Camel have been sampled rather a lot if my so-called "Chill Out" compilations are anything to go by.

I saw them live a few times back in the seventies \ early eighties.

Not bad if you like your rock melodic.

Magical! What an atmosphere!

By the way, you are not mad...You are an artist Though sometimes it can be difficult to separate those two

That is a phenomenal picture Gary, well worth all the effort!

This is the shot that I originally planned to take.

It's still interesting I think but I don't quite like it as much as the "Circle of Fire" shot.

 

[Klenchblaize]

The Circle of Fire has it by some margin to my eye as it doesn't look photoshoped and you get a sense of the work that's gone into capturing the image whereas the above .................

Ironically, there was much less work done in Photoshop for the Light Painting image than the Circle of Fire one.

Just goes to show, you can't always tell what you are looking at.

I quite like the look of the light painting but, for me, I think it might have worked better just a portion of the colour spectrum had been used instead of the whole thing. Violet through orange, say, or shades of green.

 

[Klenchblaize]

Now you've put them together it would be interesting to see the first with the sky from the second.

Both pictures are the basis for album cover artwork albeit from purveyors of a very particular style of music.

I agree with you Ian, I'm preparing such files for future outings right now.

The angles of view between the shots is completely different. One taken with a 14mm the other a 12mm lens.

Doesn't sound much but swapping the skies, although possible, would produce an image that lacked integrity.

It's the sort of mistake that is a real giveaway to anyone that knows what they are looking at.

Absolutely fantastic stuff Wayland

Beautiful photography thanks for sharing.

 

[Wayland]

Thank you, there's not much point in taking pictures if you don't share them really.

It's nice to have an appreciative audience.
