This is probably pushing the boundaries of what is considered photography, but the only real alteration is the burning-in of a pattern that could be produced in a darkroom. For this, I'm placing it in Digital Darkroom Photography instead of Photo-manipulation Digital Art; aside from the star-chart pattern, the image is pretty-much unchanged.

The image was taken at St. Mary's Lighthouse, in Whitley Bay. I The clouds were surreal that evening, as is shown in this image; they themselves looked like mountain tops breaking through cloud cover. The tones were most interesting, too.

The post-work occurred almost at-random. The star chart itself is from public domain.

Thankyou! Glad you like it.

The lower bit I thought was mountains or hills at first. Definately a nice effect.

Yeah, that's the effect I was going for; think it turned out okay in the end.

I think so! It's cool just how many types of awesome sky you can capture, j00.

It's more a case of the sky being consistently photogenic, I think. Thanks anyway, though.
