Nice shot Herb. I like the shadows on the right particularly. I hope the lovely weather continues here as I'm away for a few days next week....Rosa.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne
Thank Rosa. The shadows are caused by the front old-barn conversion over-hangs. There were seven Gites in here but we were the only occupants for most of the time. It would have been nice to get the Milky way on here too but alas it was in the other much brighter direction.
Enjoy your break and may the sun forever shine on you, Herb

Hi Steve and many thanks for your very generous comments on this one. After seeing many of your own stunning night shots, I am afraid this pales in comparison but I am truly delighted with your encouraging remarks here and am very glad you like it. Good too that you enjoyed the alternative views in in Pips, again, not without help from yourself of how to do that.
Cheers my friend, Herb

An excellent night time image Herb................very well put together! I love the contrast between the dark sky and the light in the foreground.

Thanks Keith. Yes it seems that no matter how good the stars are, it is the foreground earthly view that grabs our attention. Even the best Milky Way or Aurora Borealis needs to have that foreground to make them stand out. A great memory already for me.

Thanks once again Füsun. I am always happy if one of these shots turns out right, as they always take an awful amount of effort, both taking the shots and the doing the edits. Glad you liked it.

Regards, Herb
