Special thanks to chriscologne for the idea of retouching astronomy photos. I used Photoshop CS3 and plugins to retouch the image.

Taken at "Schwarzenberg" near Hinterstein in Bavaria, Germany. I hope you like it!

I created this composition in Photoshop CS5. I'm out of mountain photographs, so I'll have to take some new ones when I move to Switzerland in August. Swiss Alps night sky HDR, here I come!
