Milky Way and Mushroom Rock 2
Darren, is this what you had in mind? I'm not sure of the exact height of the rock, but I would guess 15-20 feet. It sits in a depression worn by decades of visitors walking around the rock.

Yep, that's it. Boy a Fisheye could really do that well.

Great job Rob. I really like the milky way and the rock but I think I would have cropped it just at the base. The lighting on the foreground is a little bit distracting for me.

The last time I was here my car overheated and it took me all day to get back home.

Ken, thanks for the suggestion, I can see your point. In general, I have trouble with foregrounds when light painting, as the foregrounds almost always overexpose.
